Service Tax on Works Contract

Dear Sir,

The audit department of Service Tax wants specific notification/circular/any rule covering exemption of Service tax on Manyawar Shree Kashiram Ji Shahri Gareeb awas yojna circular no. 5376/9-5-08-153lk/08 dated 24.07.08. You may get access to this yojna on internet. Please provide the same for which I shall be highly obliged.Please give you mobile no. and email address so that the matter may be resolved at the earliest possible.

I am a Chartered Accountant practicing in Ghaziabad. I have a problem on Service Tax. My client got a works contract in November, 2008 under Kashiram Yojna of Uttar Pradesh Government. The houses constructed under Kashiram Yojna were distributed to poor persons without any profit. Uttar Pradesh Government gave First contract for construction of houses to different development authorities of the districts. Then development authority sub – contract the work to different contractors who constructed the houses. It was said by the development authorities that this Yojna is functioning on no profit – no loss basis and is for the benefits of the poor so no Service Tax is payable on these works contract. That’s why my client got no payment for Service Tax from the development authorities and not paid Service Tax on these contracts. Now, audit team from Service Tax Department came to my client and said that you are required to make payment of Service Tax for the payments received from development authorities under Kashiram Avaas Yojna. You are requested to provide remedial information. I shall be highly obliged.

Thanks

Yours Faithfully,

Pre sale expenses - VAT

dear Sir,

we are authorised dealers in Motor cars in karnataka. After the car is booked by the customer we have to incurr some expenses like RTO fees, registration expenses, petrol expenses for taking vehicle to RTO office and decoration of car etc. we are debiting the value to customers A/c and on final billing the sum is recovered from our customers. We are not paying Vat on these values. But the Assessing Auth claims these are pre sale expenses and as per the VAT rules these sums have to be included in the taxable turnover.

Pls reply as to whether these expenses are part of the sale value or not. looking fwd for your views.

regards
