Service Tax Applies to Full Profit on Ad Sales in Print Media as Business Auxiliary Services, Not Just Commission. An individual agent inquired about the service tax implications on selling advertisements in print media, where they purchase ads at 30,000 and sell them at 35,000. The discussion concluded that the activity falls under Business Auxiliary Services, and the taxable value is 5,000, which includes the profit and commission. It was clarified that service tax should be applied to the entire 5,000, not just the commission portion. The discussion referenced legal definitions and board circulars to support the application of service tax on the full amount. (AI Summary)
