Service Tax is a form of indirect tax imposed on specified services called "taxable services". Service tax cannot be levied on any service which is not included in the list of taxable services. Over the past few years, service tax been expanded to cover new services. The objective behind levying service tax is to reduce the degree of intensity of taxation on manufacturing and trade without forcing the government to compromise on the revenue needs. The intention of the government is to gradually increase the list of taxable services until most services fall within the scope of service tax. For the purpose of levying service tax, the value of any taxable service should be the gross amount charged by the service provider for the service rendered by him.
Representations before the Tax Authorities:-
Sometimes the law is ambiguous and subject to differing interpretations. In some cases, to eliminate uncertainty, it is necessary to understand how the tax authorities interpret and apply parts of the law. We therefore are often asked by clients to approach the authorities to get their view in certain areas. We also provide assistance to our clients during tax audits.
When confronted with Authorities, Clients usually find themselves in the mist, not knowing exactly what their rights and obligations are and, moreover, unwillingly accept a point of view that is not in the benefit of the business.
