NEW ST-3 (JULY TO SEPT12)

[POLYPLEX CORPORATIONLTD]

Sir

We are paying service tax under reverse charge method in GTA, Works contract, manpower supply & rent a cab. while Filing New ST-3 For period of July to Sept 12 one issue arises i.e.

In row B2.1 - Gross amount (excluding amounts paid in advance, amounts taxable on payment basis, for which bills/invoices/challans or any other document may not have been issued) for which bills/invoices/challans or any other documents are issued relating to service received or to be received

& In row B2.7 - Amount on which service tax is payable under partial reverse charge

B2.8 -  Gross Taxable Amount - B2.8 = B2.1+B2.2+B2.3+B2.4+B2.5+B2.6+B2.7

 

For example - i am filing sheet regarding manpower supply - 

My total bill amount is = 100 (Gross amount)

I will be pay service tax on rs 75 as per reverse charge mechanism

then in row B2.1, I AM WRITING RS 100

AND IN B2.7 , I AM WRITING RS 75

AND IN B2.8, It shows the total of B2.1 to B2.7 = 175 (Gross Taxable Amount)

Which is wrong 

kindly advice
