Pls guide the amendment in service tax on legal services from 01.04.2016 Posts / Replies Showing Replies 1 to 5 of 5 Records Page: 1
At present, the service tax on legal consultancy service provided by an advocate or a firm of advocates to a business entity is paid by business entity under reverse charge mechanism. An amendment is made to exclude ‘Senior Advocate’ from reverse charge basis. They shall now have to pay service tax under forward charge. This is applicable with effect from 1st April 2016.
I concur with the views of Sh.Ganeshan Kalyani, Sir.
Thanks Sir
Our friends have clearly given the clarity that there is no change in the existing procedure except, for the services of senior advocate which is made taxable and hence need no further intervention. Regards Suryanarayana
