Issues: Whether service tax was payable by the recipient on services received from a commission agent located outside India for the period prior to 16-6-2005.
Analysis: The liability on the recipient of services provided by a non-resident or from outside India was held to arise only from 16-6-2005, when the Explanation below Section 65(105) was inserted by the Finance Act, 1994. Since the demands in the appeal related entirely to a prior period, they could not be sustained.
Conclusion: The demand of service tax for the period prior to 16-6-2005 was not sustainable and the appeal was allowed in favour of the assessee.
