Dear All,
In FY 2014-15 Taxable value of service is less than ₹ 10 Lakhs and in FY 2015-16 it is ₹ 11.20 Lakhs. Hence in FY 2015-16 service tax is payable on ₹ 1.20 lakhs only. Is this correct?
Can you please provide relevant Sections/Rules and Notifications in relation to above.
I have received SCN stating that in F Y 2015-16 tax is payable on entire ₹ 11.20 Lakhs instead of ₹ 1.20 lakhs.
Also can you please explain how to reply online in respect this matter.
Thanking You,
Kalpesh
