Service tax registration requirement for contract work triggers registration and charging obligations once statutory thresholds are crossed.
An individual performing contract work must obtain registration when turnover reaches or exceeds Rs. 9.00 Lacs, and must begin charging and depositing service tax once turnover reaches or exceeds Rs. 10.00 Lacs. Prior to registration and collection the taxpayer should confirm that the contract work is a taxable service, identify the relevant service category, and determine any applicable exemptions or abatements that may affect liability.
