A Company has installed an accounting software i.e. ERP and payment is being made in installment. The software company has charged both CST & Service tax on his part bill. My queries are...

(i) Whether TDS is applicable ?

(ii) Is it possible to charge both service tax and CST in the same bill ?

(iii) If service tax applicable, whether input of service tax avialable ?

(iv) Can bill be made seperately, one for software sale after charging CST and another for service charges & installation after charging service tax. If it is possible then comment on TDS applicability.
