Dear Saha,

In my opinion you need to pay the service tax on the rent even though it is being deposited in the court. Further you should deduct necessary TDS on the rent under Income Tax Act, if the rent exceeds Rs.1,20,000/- per annum.

as per my view the service tax over the rent is not to be deposited with the rent controller.
