[Swapneswar muduli]

Dear Sir,

We are manufacturing company Pvt Ltd. Our labor contractor is a proprietor he raise bill for bonus for the year 2014-15 on Oct-2015. So my question is which provision of service tax is applicable for this transaction because before 01.04-2015 the service tax % was 75 % and 25 % but from 01.-04-2015 onwards it is 100% for service receiver so.

In this transaction current provision is applicable ?

(2) Will we take credit of this service tax ?

Regards

Current provision is applicable. Credit may also be taken.

I agree with Mariappan sir that present provision will be applicable. and it is understood that if there is nexus between the manpower employeed and the manufacturing activity the credit is rightly eligible.
