  6. Dear Sir / Madam, I have to pay service tax for the Q1 of 2017-18, however it says ‘Assessee Code is Invalid’ even after checking it multiple times. The assessee has been migrated to GST on 31-01-2017, is this because the assessee has been migrated to GST? If i enter code of another assessee who has not yet migrated to GST it immediately accepts the code for payment of service tax.

  10. If a service provider claims the benefit of presumptive taxation under Section 44ADA of the Income Tax Act (where Taxable Income presumed to be 50% of total revenue), can the service provider still claim input tax credit on the services he has received?

  11. Sir,
    You have written due date for service tax return in case of individual & partneship firm quarterly. But, i think it is due date for payment of service tax but not filing of written. Please see the correction.

  12. 1.I am an individual consultant registered with the department
    I have my service tax no.
    I want to know if the service tax returns for individuals is half yearly or quarterly ?
    For the quarter Oct to Dec 2016, I have paid the service tax on line, but I think I made a calculation errot and hence paid less by Rs.3000.00 !
    How to pay the amount second time on line ?

  13. I am an agent of various banks and NBFC’s Housing loan and Loan against property now i had received commission from them amount of 10 lac from april 16 to till date shall i liable to pay service tax and how ? i does’t issue any invoice for commission to banks and i neither received any amount from the parties.

  14. Hi

    Is there any service tax applicble on export of services , foreg refer to three scenarios :

    1) goods are exported from china to to Usa and the chineses vendor provide me commission .
    2) goods are exported from India to USA and the USA client provide commission .
    3) goods are exported from Indian to USA and Indian vendor provides me commission

  15. if failed to submit service tax return on 25/10/2016 relevant to April to Sep 2016, what is the procedure, or fine if any

    1. If you are failed to file the return on due date than you can file late returns too. According to the provision there are late file penalty provisions. But you can file the return without that too. After department will generate the late file liability and then you can pay only liability amount.

  16. Is the service tax due data calculated based on the Invoice date or on the date of payment?
    For e.g, I raise a invoice in Oct 2016, but the payment happens only after 90 days. Should I be paying by ST on 5th of Nov or after I receive the payment?

    1. Point of Taxation whichever is earlier:

      (a|) date on which invoice for the service provided /or to be provided is issued or

      (b) where the invoice is not issued within the 14 days of services completion then

      the date of completion shall be consider

      © in case of advance payment than date of advance payment

      Now in above case your tax liability is on 5th Nov

    1. If the Service provider have not make the payment to the government then Interest will be payable

      :

      From 14/05 /2016 onwards:

      1) 24% p a ( in case of Will full default and turnover > 60 Lacs )

      2) 21% p a (in case of Will full default and turnover <= 60 Lacs ) 3) 15% p a (in case of other than Will-Full Default and turnover > 60 Lacs)

      4) 12% p a (in case of other than Will-Full Default and turnover <= 60 Lacs) From 1/10/2014 till 13/05/2016: 1) 18% p a ( Upto 6 Months and Turnover > 60 Lacs)

      2) 15% p a (Upto 6 Months and Turnover <= 60 Lacs) 3) 24% p a (6 Months to 1Year and Turnover > 60 Lacs)

      4) 21% p a (6 Months to 1Year and Turnover <= 60 Lacs) 5) 30% p a (More than 1 Year and Turnover > 60 Lacs)

      6) 27% p a (More than 1 Year and Turnover <= 60 Lacs)

      1. If the Service provider have not make the payment to the government then Penalty will be payable for fy 2013-14, 2014-15, 2015-16 & 2016-17 (Please Clear Due Date of Penalty)

  17. I am an Individual entered into an consultancy agreement of 5.00 lac pm since July15.
    Shall I require to pay Service Tax monthly basis or Quarterly Basis wef April2016.

    1. Individual/ partnership firm/ one person Company/HUF is required to make payment of Service tax to Government by the 6th day of the month in case of e-payment or by the 5th day of the month in any other case immediately following quarter in which the service is provided or agreed to be provided.

  18. Hello Sir,
    Our company is an IT company which provide its services in USA only not in India. Its a partnership firm. Owner is from USA. So, are we liable to pay service tax? If Yes, so on which amount?

      1. Here you are saying that if the service provider is in India he is liable to pay Service Tax, in reply of export of services to USA , and again on November 17 in reply of Suresh’s question you are saying that Export of services is Exempted. Can you please make it more clear and appropriate.
        Basically my question is in between these two.
        we are giving technical and consultation services to our clients based at US,EUROPE,SINGAPORE and getting the payments in USD so are we liable. we are based in India and 100% indian entity.

  19. I am using Genius and in the service tax return the due date is 29/04/2016 for the 2nd half of the Financial Year 2015-16.

    Can you please arrange a notification for extension of due dates.

    1. Service Tax is applicable on services provided in India where as Income tax is a tax which is applicable on direct income of the assessee. If you are a businessman and providing services, in that case you have to disclose details of services provided in profit and loss account but that whole income is not chargeable for Income Tax in that case Income tax will be applicable only after allowing all expenditure from gross amount charged. Hence both are different taxes, Income tax is a direct tax and other one is indirect tax and changeability of both is also different.

      1. @Naveen shekhawat- service tax payment qtr.Apr to Jun service tax due date-5 July.and march month due date-31 mar.
