The Tax has been levied with effect from 01.06.2007. Such Service Tax is applicable in renting of immovable property for business or commercial purpose (renting of residential premises not taxable). Further such tax is not leviable if the premises is rented to or by a religous body or to a educational body (except commercial training and coaching centre).

The Service Tax on Rent of Immovable Property is leviable only when the rent exceeds the threshold limit of Rs.10/- lakhs. One has to register himself when he crosses the rent receipt of Rs.9/- lakhs in the preceeding year. Other relevant information has been given by Sri Rajesh Kumar ji.
