Service Provider must fall under the category of Individual, Prop., Partnership firm, HUF, AOP etc. 2. Service receiver must be business entity registered as body corporate. Thus Proprietorship or Partnership firm (including LLP) are not eligible for RCM. SP will pay ST in both services. - Reply By Ganeshan Kalyani - The Reply = Thanks Sri Kasturi Sir for clarifying the issue.

Reply = Other than body corporated, limited companies, private limited companies, if service of rent a cab or Manpower supply is provided by any other individual, partnership firm or LLP, service tax has to be discharged under reverse charge. Under the situation, if a firm has turnover less than or more than 10 lacs, service receiver has to discharge his liability under the provision of section 68(2) of Finance Act. For more clarity, you can refer clause F of rule 2(d) of service tax rules 1994 which is reproduced below: (F) in relation to services provided or agreed to be provided by way of :- (a) renting of a motor vehicle designed to carry passengers, to any person who is not engaged in a similar business; or (b) .....

I hope the above clarifies both of your query. - Reply By Ganeshan Kalyani - The Reply = Dear Rajeev, here is your reply for both the query:- 1) Service tax shall be paid by service provider as the recipient of service i .....

The liability is payable by service provider under forward charge. 2) No service tax is payable as the turnover of the service provider is below the SSI exemption limit of ₹ 10 Lacs. Also the recipient is not a body corporate and therefore reverse charge is not applicable. The provider of the service is liable to pay service tax under forward charge, but since the turnover is within the taxable limit there is no service tax liability. Thanks.
