    News and Press Release
    Dated:- 21-6-2012
    The press release discusses the evolution of service taxation in India, starting from its inception in 1994 with a modest collection of Rs 407 crore, to Rs 97,444 crore in 2011-12. The document highlights the challenges faced due to overlaps in service categories and the lack of clarity in definitions, leading to tax leakages and litigation. The 2012 budget introduced a new taxation system known as the Negative List, where all services are taxable unless specified otherwise. This guide aims to educate taxpayers and administrators about the new system, providing guidance notes on various topics such as service definition, taxability, exemptions, and valuation.

    2025 (5) TMI 1835
    Case Laws Service Tax
    The SC upheld state governments' power to levy entertainment tax on DTH and cable TV operators under Entry 62, List II of the Constitution. The Court dismissed most civil appeals by operators challenging the tax, ruling that broadcasting for entertainment constitutes a luxury taxable by states. Both central service tax and state entertainment tax can be imposed on the same activity as they target different aspects - service provision versus entertainment reception. The Court applied the aspect theory, finding no constitutional violation or legislative competence issues. However, the SC partially allowed Kerala's appeal, setting aside the HC's finding that taxing only operators with 7500+ connections violated Article 14, ruling the exemption was a valid legislative tool rather than discriminatory.

    D. O. F. No 334/1/2012-TRU Dated:- 16-3-2012 Circular
    The circular outlines changes in the Indian Budget 2012-2013 regarding service tax, focusing on simplifying tax processes and preparing for the Goods and Services Tax (GST). The service tax rate is restored to 12%, and a "Negative List" approach is introduced, taxing all services except those specifically exempted. The Place of Provision of Services Rules, 2012, are introduced to determine the location of service provision for tax purposes. The circular also details changes in valuation rules, Cenvat credit rules, and exemptions, aiming to streamline compliance and reduce litigation. The new rules will replace existing export and import service taxation rules.

    2019 (10) TMI 160
    Case Laws Service Tax
    The SC held that incorporated clubs and associations were not liable for service tax prior to July 1, 2012, based on the doctrine of mutuality. The Court ruled that sales tax was not applicable on food and drinks sold to permanent members during the quarter ending June 30, 2002, as there was no sale between different persons under the mutuality doctrine. Post-July 1, 2012, the service tax definition became broader, but the mutuality principle still applied to member clubs where property is held for and on behalf of members, not antagonistically. The Court distinguished proprietary clubs where owners are separate from members. The Revenue's appeal was dismissed.

Following precedent from CESTAT New Delhi, the Tribunal ruled that separate billing for banquet hall charges and food charges is permissible under Notification No. 12/2003-ST. The requirement for separate contracts was deemed legally inconsequential when invoices clearly indicated both parties agreed to segregate the components. Extended period of limitation could not be invoked as the matter involved interpretation of law.

    The article discusses the exemption of service tax on restaurant services, specifically focusing on the conditions under which restaurants are subject to this tax. Initially, restaurants with air-conditioning or central air-heating and a license to serve alcohol were taxed.

The article also covers temporary exemptions in Uttarakhand and clarifications issued by CBEC regarding service tax applicability in various scenarios. Legal challenges in Kerala and Bombay High Courts regarding the constitutional validity of such taxes are also highlighted.
