All the services mentioned in the query are liable to service tax. In case wehre, turnover is below Rs. 4 Lakh, you can claim exemption. You have to pay service tax on the part of commission

Services provided on behalf of another would beliable under Business Auxiliary Service. If the total taxable services provided is below Rs. 4 Lakhs in the previous year, then in the current year till Rs. 4 Lakhs of total receipts there would be no liability. The sale of sim cards could be a service resale. Since Airtel or BSNL would have already paid the ST on the SIM card on the whole value there would be no requirement for the reseller to charge.
