Will the payment of part of consideration by the service receiver to a third party on behalf of
the service provider be included in the value of taxable services?
Service tax chargeable on any taxable service is on the basis of gross amount charged by
service provider for such service provided or to be provided by him. It is not necessary that
the service receiver should pay the consideration only to the service provider; any money paid
to the third party is also includible. Hence, payment made to Khanna Manufacturers would be
includible in the value of taxable services.
