Dear Aman,

Authorised or unauthorised workshop would not impact service tax liability. If the total consideration during any financial year is more than 10 lacs, service tax is payable. However, ST registration is mandatory once the value touches 9 lacs.

AI Summary

Unauthorized Workshops Must Pay Service Tax if Annual Earnings Exceed 10 Lakhs; Registration Needed at 9 Lakhs. A discussion on a forum addresses whether unauthorized workshops are liable for service tax. A consultant clarifies that under the Negative List regime, service tax applies if the threshold limit is exceeded. Another participant inquires about the imposition date and threshold details. A chartered accountant explains that service tax liability is unaffected by workshop authorization status. If the annual consideration exceeds 10 lakhs, service tax is due, and registration is required once the value reaches 9 lakhs.
