Clarification by the Board

(Taxation Guide – Guidance Note – 4 – Exemptions dated 20.06.2012)

“4.12 Specified services relating to education ::

4.12.8 Are private tuitions covered in the entry relating to education?

No. However, private tutors can avail the benefit of threshold exemption.

Hence, in your case service tax is required to be paid.
