28 March 2016PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE RATE OF SERVICE TAX ON GTA IS 4.35% OR RATE IS 4.2% & 0.5% SWACHH BHARAT CESS
I.E. IF GTA GROSS VALUE IS RS.50,000/-,
1. ST RATE IS 50,000*4.35% = 2,175/-
2. ST RATE 50,000*4.2% = 2100 & SWACHH BHARAT CESS 0.5% ON 50,000 = 250
TOTAL RATE OF GTA = 2.350/-
PLEASE CLARIFY WHICH IS CORRECT RATE OF SR. NO.1 OR RATE OF SR. NO. 2
THANKS

2. ST on 50000 * 4.2% = 2100 (14 * 30% = 4.2%)
Swachh Bharat Cess on 50000 * 0.15% = 75 (0.5 * 30% = 0.15%)

Agree with jaddish
Section 119 provides that SBC would be levied and collected as service tax. Further, sub section 5 provides that provision of chapter V of the Finance Act would apply to SBC as they apply to service tax. The abatement notification is issued under section 93 (chapter V) of the Act. So, this notification would apply for SBC also in the same manner as apply for service tax. Hence, the effective rate of tax on all abatement services would be 14.5% * effective rate under Notification 26/2012-ST. For GTA, it would be 14.5%*30%= 4.35% (not 4.70%).
