This query is : Resolved
Is the filing fees paid to CESTAT for appeal in service tax matters attract payment of service tax under reverse charge method?
The reason for my query is Notfn. 30/2012-ST[sl.4 of table] specifies ' In respect of services provided or agreed to be provided by an arbitral tribunal' the pecentage of S.T payable by the person receiving the service as 100%. Pl. clarify. Thanks

The appeal in service tax matters lies to CESTAT which is not an arbitral tribunal: therefore, no service tax lies on filing fees
