Suppose i m a service receiver .

I m taking  same service  from two different service providers  of Rs 50Lakh each and one service provider is charging service tax while another one is not charging service tax. 

Both are resident service providers . One is registered and the other one is not registered.

Name of the service is  Contractual Services like Excavation

Querry  :  Whether there will be any liabilty of the Service receiver?

NO

not in this case.

The service reciver has been liable for payment of service tax and where the SP does not collect and pay the ST the receiver is not concerned.

At times the dept proceeds against the SP and gives a notice to the SR that the amount due to the SP should be forzen as the ST is payable by him. That could be the impact.

SERVICE PROVIDER IS PLAYING A HIGH RISK GAME TO BENIFIT YOU

In State VAT Laws, there is a Purchase Tax meaning by if other person is not registered purchasing person will loose the benefit of VAT Credit.

The same is not the case with Service Tax.
