<h1>Architects Excluded from Consulting Engineer Service Tax, Per Finance Act 1994; Architecture Recognized Separately Under Architects Act 1972.</h1> The circular clarifies that architects are not included under the scope of services provided by consulting engineers for the purpose of service tax. According to the Finance Act, 1994, taxable services by consulting engineers involve advice, consultancy, or technical assistance in engineering disciplines, provided by qualified engineers or engineering firms. Architecture is recognized as a separate profession under The Architects Act, 1972, with distinct qualifications and registration requirements. While there may be overlaps between architecture and engineering, they are separate disciplines. Consequently, service tax on consulting engineers does not apply to architectural services unless combined with engineering services without a clear cost breakdown.
