Sir,
Hello,
As per govt service tax notificaiton 12/2012 Agricultural produce has been exempted for service tax. This Agricultural Produce does not indicate the variety of produce following in it, hence unable to get correct defination. I am having my transhipment commision agent buisness, therfore I want to know wether following items comes under Agricultural Produce or not. Are these items are exempted or not as service tax point of view.


Turmeric, Tapioca Sago, Ground Nut Seeds, Pulses, Mustard, Ajwain, Watery Coconut, Dry Coconut, Desicated Coconut Powder / Flakes, Magnesium Sulphate, Sugar, Jaggery, Red chilly, Nut (Supari) , Mustard seeds,  ........ etc.

Please guide me on this issue so as to pay correct service tax to the govt.

Dear Sir.

Though the Services relating to agriculture are covered in Negative List, the the activity of earning commission for transhipment of agriculture does not cover in the definition of "agricultre" and therefore service provided by you would be liable to Service Tax.
