Taxability of service tax - charges from FCI


  • Contents
R/SIr We are Rice SHeller and We are Milling the Paddy supplied by the FCI (GOVT DEPTT) and we returned the FInished Product as RICe to FCI and for the Services provided we receive from FCI Milling Charges @ 17/- per Qtl. Whether these charges received from FCI are taxable under service tax and if yes please let us know when this service came under the purview of service tax. Secondaly whether this service is exempt from service tax as this service relates to AGRICULTURE. We shall be highly thankful to you. SUNIL MEHTA FCA

Dehusking of paddy is a manufacturing process and the rice is a finished product emerged from such process. This activity is not liable to service tax under business auxiliary services.

The processing charges would be liable under business auxiliary servcies if the process were considered as a process not amounting to manufacture. If the process is a process ofmanufacture then as per the explanantion the same would not be liable to servcie tax. The exemption available under BAS is for processes in relation to agriculture.I have my doubts whether the process of shellig would be considered as a process in relation to agriculture. I think it is a process undertaken after agriculture.
