Dear Sir,

As per my view, If the principal company who supply their casting to you under cover of job work challan under rule 4(5)(a) of Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004, and you do machining activity on such casting and return the machined casting, No need to pay service tax on such machining charges if the principal uses such machined casting into his final products. Your activity of machining should not be manufacturing activity in such case.

Sir,

In your case, you need to raise the service tax bill only on Labour charges i.e. on the Job work value.

Dear Sir,

As per my view, if the activity is not amount to manufacture and appropriate duty is paid by the principal on the excisable final products, job worker will not liable for service tax on job work charges. but if the excisable final products are exempt from the duty of excise, job worker is liable for service tax on job work charges.

Dear All,

It is settled legal position casting becomes finished goods when machined. Please check para 8.4.2 of the Central Excise Law and Practice authored by Mr. V.S.Datey.
