Cleaning and on-board housekeeping services supplied to Indian Railways are described as exempt from service tax. Before 1 July 2012, cleaning railway stations and coaches was treated as outside taxable cleaning services because those locations and rolling stock were not commercial or industrial premises. From that date, cleaning, sanitation, conservancy, waste management, toilet disinfection and related housekeeping were treated as municipal functions provided to Government and covered by Entry 25 of Notification No. 25/2012-ST. The notes also state that extended limitation cannot rest on suppression where the Department already knew the same activities and facts, and that retention of collected service tax requires supporting evidence.
