Hi
Can any one tell me whether Service Tax is applicable on Hire charges of Loader for moblisation of Staff from town to Plant location.
If yes, whether service tax will deemed to be included in bill amount, if not charged seperately.

Dear Mr. Mahesh,
What I understand from the query is that
You have entered into contract with your customer for providing some service.
For the purpose of providing the service, you need to send your staff to the customer's location.
In the contract a separate amount is specified for mobilising the staff to the customer's location.
If the above understanding of facts is correct, then the charges are really part of the gross amount charged for the service. If the service that you are rendering is taxable, then the amount charged for mobilisation of staff would be included in the "gross value".
We may be able to understand the query better if you specify the service.
Thanks,
