No problem in charging "CST and Service tax " in a single invoice.

Dear Rajendra, Packaged Softwares are long back held to be GOODS and as such whenever there is a transfer of such software VAT/CST is attracted, at the same time such software need regular updation which amounts to providing services and services tax accordingly is also attracted. There is nothing wrong in charging both VAT/CST alongwith Service Tax in single invoice.

Supreme Court in Tata Consultancy Services case said in the year 2005 that packaged software is goods liable to VAT. But multiple levy ,under different statutes, on same goods is debatable.
