Basic Exemption of Rs.10 Lakhs in Service Tax , Service Tax

[SANJAY BAHETI]

I want to know that basic exemption limit of rs. 10 lakhs in service tax is to be seen every financial year. or is it that once you crossed 10 lakhs limit, you have to pay service tax even though in next financial year amount is below rs. 10 lakhs. ? pls provide reference also.

The turnover of the preceding year only is to be considered. If turnover is below 10 lac in preceding year then exemption may be claimed again

In addition to what has been said above, I wish to say with reference to your question that once your cross the limit of Rs 10 Lakh, only next year you will not be entitled for any exemption. Again if your turnover is less that Rs 10 Lakh in a year  the next year you will be entitled for exemption.

Reply of Niraj Kumar is most proper, 10 Lac limit of  Exemption is available in basis of turnover limit of preceding finanacial year that means any year limit within the 10 lac in that case exemption is available next financail year.
