    SERVICE TAX IN INDIA

    The tax reforms committee headed by Dr.Raja.J.Chelliah recognized the revenue potential of the

    service sector in India and recommended imposition of service tax on select services. Based on these

    recommendations Dr. Manmohan Singh, the Union Finance Minister, in his budget speech for the

    year1994-1995 introduced the new concept of service tax. Service tax is being proposed on fifteen

    individually specified services and the scope of certain existing services is being extended or clarified.

    Subsequent Finance Acts have added more and more services to be taxed for service tax purpose. As

    such today 107 services are chargeable to service tax.

    Service Tax is a form of indirect tax imposed on specified services called "taxable services". Service taxcannot be levied on any service which is not included in the list of taxable services. Over the past fewyears, service tax been expanded to cover new services. The objective behind levying service tax is toreduce the degree of intensity of taxation on manufacturing and trade without forcing the government tocompromise on the revenue needs. The intention of the government is to gradually increase the list oftaxable services until most services fall within the scope of service tax. For the purpose of levyingservice tax, the value of any taxable service should be the gross amount charged by the serviceprovider for the service rendered by him.

    Service Tax was first brought into force with effect from 1 July 1994. All service providers in India,except those in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, are required to pay a Service Tax in India. Initially only

    three services were brought under the net of service tax and the tax rate was 5%. Gradually moreservices came under the ambit of Service Tax. The rate of tax was increased from 5% to 8% w.e.f 14May 2003. From 10 September 2004 the rate of Service Tax was enhanced to 10% from 8%. Besidesthis 2% education cess on the amount of Service Tax was also introduced. In the Union Budget of Indiafor the year 2006-2007, service tax was increased from 10% to 12%. On February 24, 2009 in order togive relief to the industry reeling under the impact of economic recession, The rate of Service Tax wasreduced from 12 per cent to 10 per cent.

    NEED FOR SERVICE TAX

    It is prime responsibility of the Government to fulfil the increasing developmental needs of the

    country and its people, by the way of public expenditure. Governments primary sources of revenue are

    direct and indirect taxes. Revenue receipts from customs and Excise duties are on the decline due to

    World Trade Organisation (WTO) commitments and rationalization of commodity duties.

    While the largest component of GDP in the country comes from the Service Sector, its

    contribution to the national treasury had been insignificant. With the increase in income , increasing

    portion of such incomes is spent on the consumption of services like entertainment, travel and tourism,

    etc. Though there exist various taxes or duties like Union Excise Duties, VAT, Sales Tax, Entry Tax, or

    Octroi Duty, etc by Central or State Government, most of the services are not directly subject to

    taxation. Thus production and consumption of services, which constitute a large growing portion of the

    economy, contribute very little by way of taxation. Extending the tax to the service sector was not only to

    ensure neutrality and horizontal equity in taxation but also to broaden the tax base and improve revenue

    productivity of tax system.

    1. Constitutional & Legal provisions behind levy of Service Tax in India.

    Constitutional Validity

    Article 265 of the Constitution lays down that no tax shall be levied or collected except by theauthority of law. Schedule VII divides this subject into three categories-

    a) Union list (only Central Government has power of legislation)

    c) Concurrent list (both Central and State Government can pass legislation).

    To enable Parliament to formulate by law principles for determining the modalities of levying the

    Service Tax by the Central Govt. and collection of the proceeds thereof by the Central Govt. and theState, the amendment vide Constitution (92nd amendment) Act, 2003 has been made. Consequently,new article 268 A has been inserted for Service Tax levy by Union Govt., collected and appropriated bythe Union Govt., and amendment of seventh schedule to the constitution, in list I-Union list after entry92B, entry 92C has been inserted for taxes on services as well as in article 270 of the constitution theclause (1) article 268A has been included.

    2. Formation and function of DGST:

    Considering the increasing workload due to the expanding coverage of service tax, it wasdecided to centralize all the work and entrust the same to a separate unit supervised by a very seniorofficial. Accordingly, the office of Director General (Service Tax) was formed in the year 1997. It isheaded by the Director General (Service Tax). The functions and powers of Director General (ServiceTax) are:

    i) To ensure that proper establishment and infrastructure has been created under different central

    Excise/service tax Commission rates to monitor the collection and assessment of service tax.

    ii) To study the staff requirement at field level for proper and effective implementation of service tax.

    Challenges before the Service Tax Administration inIndia

    Service tax administration in India has before it multi-dimensionalchallenges. Some of them are related to the very nature and growth of servicesector in the economy and others relate to procedural aspects of the service taxcollection.

    The growth of service sector at a high rate offers opportunities as well aschallenges to bring under the tax net hitherto uncovered services. This offerstremendous revenue potential to the Government. It is expected that in duecourse Service Tax would reduce the tax burden on international trade (Customsduty) and domestic manufacturing sector (Excise duty). So a planned growth ofservice tax would be commensurate with the goals of economic liberalization andglobalization. This process requires levy of taxes on new services withoutsubstantial rise in the rate or cost of collection.

    The proposed Goods and Service Tax is a part of the tax reforms thatcentre around evolving an efficient and harmonized consumption tax system in

    the country. Presently, there are parallel systems of indirect taxation at theCentral and State level. The existing Service Tax System poses an imminentchallenge, to reform its synergies, to eventually harmonize itself in the GSTregime, as and when it is rolled out. Successful integration of goods and servicetax, would give India a world-class tax system and will bring in improved taxcollection. In a way, it will boost our economy and enable us to compete at theglobal front. As a result, our system will eventually match the internationalstandard in the sphere of indirect taxation. It will also end the long standingdistortions of differential treatments to the manufacturing and service sectors.The effort to prepare for a smooth integration with the GST without any hardshipto public is a big challenge, that need to be handled at the field as well policy

    level.No doubt, the twin goal of revenue maximization and introduction of the

    culture of voluntary tax compliance also throw up major challenge before the

    22

    23/33

    service tax administration in the country. The Department has taken severalsteps to upgrade the skill of the officers handling Service Tax and equip themwith necessary expertise. Training programmes on the issues related to ServiceTax are regularly conducted for the Departmental officers. A Manual for scrutinyof Service Tax Returns has been prepared by the CBEC to enable theDepartmental officers to carry out the scrutiny of Service Tax returns in amethodical and systematic manner. At the same time, the Govt. has also takenseveral facilitation measures for the tax payers. To assist them in the filing ofService Tax returns, Service Tax Returns Preparer (STRP) Scheme has been

    launched in 2009. To enable them to understand the basic issues related toService Tax, a booklet on Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on Service Tax hasbeen published and the FAQ has also been put up on the Departmental website.Open House sessions, Seminars etc. are also organized by the field formationsto help the assesses and solve their problems.

    6. Electronic Tax Administration

    1.1 The Directorate General of Systems & Data Management has developed a web based softwarenamed as AUTOMATION OF CENTRAL EXCISE AND SERVICE TAX (ACES) which automatesvarious processes of Central Excise & Service Tax for Assesses and Department and gives completeend to end solution.

    The ACES can be used for:

    (i) Online registration and amendment of registration details;

    (ii) Electronic filing of documents such as Returns, Claims, Intimations and permissions;

    (iii) Online tracking of the status of applications, claims and permissions;

    (iv) Online facility to view documents like registration Certificate, Returns, Show Cause Notices,and Order-In-Originals etc.

    1.2 As per the proviso to amended Rule 6 (2) of Service Tax Rules, 1994, where an assessee haspaid a total service tax of rupees ten lakh or more including the amount paid by utilisation of CENVATcredit, in the preceding financial year, he shall deposit the service tax liable to be paid by himelectronically, through internet banking. This has been made effective from 01.04.2010 vide NotificationNo.01/2010 ST dated 19.02.2010.

    1.3 As per the proviso to amended Rule 7 (2) of Service Tax Rules, 1994, where an assessee haspaid a total service tax of rupees ten lakh or more including the amount paid by utilisation of CENVATcredit, in the preceding financial year, he shall file the return electronically. This has been made effectivefrom 01.04.2010 vide Notification No.01/2010 ST dated 19.02.2010.

    7. Audit and Inspections

    23

  • 8/3/2019 Final Service Tax

    24/33

    Inspection: Directorate General of Service Tax (DGST) conducts inspections ofService Tax work in Central Excise Commissionerates & Service taxCommission rates all over the country. Inspections in the past have prompted theCommission rates to streamline the service tax administration system.

    In pursuance of the Boards letter No.137/311/2007-CX.3 dated15.12.2007, the DGST is conducting the inspection of the Commission rateshaving service tax revenue of Rs.500 Crore and above per annum. Accordingly,8 Commissionerates each were inspected by the DGST during 2008-09, 2009-10and 2010-11.

    Audit: The service tax is envisaged to be administered on self-assessmentbasis. Legal provisions for facilitating such self-assessment have been made inthe Finance Act, 2001. This underlines the need for strengthening the auditmechanism to prevent tax evasion/avoidance. The Director General of Audit,Central Board of Excise & Customs New Delhi published SERVICE TAX AUDITMANUAL 2003 on 01.10.2003 containing the entire procedure to be followed bythe officers of the Department while conducting audit of the Service Taxproviders. All Commissionerates have also been directed to conduct the internalaudit of assessees records as per the instructions of the Board.

    This audit drive has resulted in the augmentation of revenue. During 2009-10 total 12989 audits were conducted in India by 549 audit groups. These audits,resulted in detection of short payment to the tune of Rs. 7873.84 Crores and arecovery of Rs.1083.43 Crores. It is necessary that all available resources andefforts are mobilized by the field formations for audit of the registered assessesas per the norms decided by the Board.

    8. Future growth path for service tax in India.

    Service tax is envisaged as the tax of the future. Well synchronizedtaxation on manufacturing, trade (domestic & international) and service withoutgiving rise to cascading effect of taxation would be an ideal worth pursuing in theimmediate future. This would bring in VAT in its truest sense, though the ultimateobjection usher in the regime of Goods and Service Tax (GST).

    Continued growth in GDP accompanied by higher rate of growth inservice sector promises new & wider avenues of taxation to the Government. Ifthe tax on services reduces the degree of intensity of taxation on manufacturingand trade without forcing the Government to compromise on the revenue needs,then one of the basic objectives of taxing the service sector would be achieved.

    Voluntary tax compliance on the part of taxpayers demands prudentaccounting practices and transparency in the conduct of their business. Marginalrates of taxation would be conducive in this process. Many new services may bebrought under the tax net in future. The inclusion of all value added services inthe tax net would yield larger amount of revenue and make the existing taxstructure more elastic.

    Advanced economies of Western Europe, North America and Far Easthave share of service sector in their GDP ranging from 60% to 80%. The growthin absolute quantum of GDP and proportion of Service-sector in GDP holdspromise for larger revenue generation without increasing the existing level oftaxation

    Future Course of Action

    24

  • 8/3/2019 Final Service Tax

    25/33

    The following items of works have to be attended to urgently to improve theadministration of Service Tax in the country.

    1. Target (Budget estimate) of Rs.82000 crores Service Tax collection for f.y.2011-12 to be exceeded.

    2. Intensify the field survey operations to ensure that all taxable serviceassessees are brought into the tax net and Service Tax due from them arecollected without hitch.

    3. While the basic tenet of voluntary compliance of Service Tax law has to be

    adhered to, recalcitrant/ habitual evaders of Service Tax have to be booked forappropriate action under the law. There could be no leniency in this regard.

    4. Effective use of Audit and Anti-evasion as tools for ensuring thecompliance on the part of the assessee and curbing the instances ofirregularities and tax evasion. With the launch of ACES greater emphasis will beon training the staff in computer skills necessary to carry out effective, systematicand result oriented analysis of data available in the system, to achieve theirperson.

    5. The statutory change to prosecute frequent offenders/tax evaders isneeded in the Act.

    6. Effectively implement an Electronic Tax Administration (ETA) system forservice tax so that service tax could be administered as a pioneer e-tax of thecountry. The

    Directorate General of Systems & Data Management has developed a web basedsoftware named as AUTOMATION OF CENTRAL EXCISE AND SERVICE TAX(ACES) which automates various processes of Central Excise & Service Tax forAssesses and Department and gives complete end to end solution.

    7. Concentrate on liquidation of Service Tax arrears and issue necessaryclarifications to the field officers so that arrears linked up with disputedinterpretations of the provisions of the law could be easily resolved.

    8. Attend to all major court cases relating to Service Tax law for earlydecision.

    9. Deploy adequate staff to attend to the service tax work and provideinfrastructure and conveyance to implement service tax law effectively.

    Sales Tax Avoidance

    Businesses can reduce the impact of sales tax for themselves and their customers by planning for thetax consequences of all activities. Sales tax avoidance often includes the following:

    1. Designing invoices to reduce the taxable portion of a sale transaction. In Maryland, for

    example, a delivery charge is exempt from the tax when stated separately from handling andother taxable charges.

    2. New facilities. Jurisdictions with no sales tax or broad exemptions for certain types of businessoperations would be an obvious consideration in selecting a site for a new manufacturing plant,warehouse or administrative office.

    3. Delivery location. For a businesses operating in several jurisdictions, choosing the best locationin which to take delivery can reduce or eliminate the sales tax liability. This is particularly importantfor an item to be sold or used in another jurisdiction with a lower tax rate or an exemption for that

    item. Businesses should consider whether a temporary storage exemption applies to merchandiseinitially accepted in a jurisdiction with a higher tax rate.

    4. Review of company purchases to determine whether tax was paid in error for equipment andsupplies qualifying for exemptions, especially in jurisdictions with broad manufacturingexemptions. Some jurisdictions allow refunds as long as three or even four years after the tax waspaid.

    5. Periodic review of record-keeping procedures related to sales and use tax. Proper supportingdetail, including exemption and resale certificates, invoices and other records must be available todefend the company in the event of a sales and use tax audit. Without proper documentation, aseller can be held liable for tax not collected from a buyer.
