AI Summary

Limited Liability Partnerships Eligible for Clause 7 Exemption Under Point of Taxation Rules, 2011 for Service Tax Payment. A query was raised regarding whether Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) are exempt from the accrual basis under clause 7 of the Point of Taxation Rules, 2011, as per Notification No. 25/2011, which exempts Chartered Accountants, Company Secretaries, and Cost and Works Accountants who are individuals or partnership firms. Two responses were provided, both suggesting that LLPs, despite being incorporated, share the basic nature of partnership firms and are therefore eligible for the exemption, allowing them to pay service tax on a receipt basis.
