Tax on Services on Rent-A-Cab Service - A Guide
1.1 What is Rent- A-Cab Service? The Rent-A-Cab Service means the rental of vehicles for passenger transport. However, in accordance with Communication No 20/2012-ST of 05.06.2012, the requirements of section 65 shall no longer be applicable from 01.07.2012.
This means that in the negative list system the definition in Section 65 for services provided or contracted on or after 01.07.2012 no longer applies. While the new definition is included in Section 65/B of the Finance Act 1994, which does not specify "Rent-A-Cab" or a similar type of services, the new definition is not used.
The definition of the car rental services is described in answer to Q. 1. Specifically for the reduction and reversal of charges, the rental of passenger cars was offered. And, according to the interpretation rule of Section 66F(2), if a department is able to provide differentiated handling for any reason on the basis of its own definition, the most particular definition is preferable to a more general one.
Also, for the purposes of paying the taxes, the most appropriate coding for this type of services is the bookkeeping system "00440048" for the "Rent a Cab Operator" group. For whom does the car rental services apply? Every entity offering a car "rental" services for the transportation of "passengers" not included in the 66D Road Traffic Avoidance Schedule and not included in the non-exempt video message No. 25/2012 Income Services Duty of 20 June 2012 is included in the car rental services manual.
Clearly, the rental of a car (and not just a taxi) is covered. This means that it covers the hire of power-driven vehicle, driver's cabins, maxi-cabins, minibuses, busses and any other power-driven craft intended for the carriage of persons, regardless of their seating capacities.
However, the more significant definition of this type of assistance could be "Rent-A-PKW-Service", which is not included in the list of assistance provided. Note that according to the stated supply of goods and related utilities u/s 66E(f), the levying of VAT on the supply of goods by rental, lease, licence or in such a way without transferring the right to use such goods is levied.
The reason for this is that any assignment of rights to use goods is regarded as a "sale" under Art. 366(29A) of the Constitution of India and the central government is not authorised to impose a duty on such operations. This means that any such rental, leasing, leasing, licensing, etc. activities would draw services taxes or value added taxes that are mutually exclusive, according to the assignment of the right of use according to the facts and conditions of each operation and on the basis of legal proceedings.
1. What does "rent" mean? 1.6 Is property in the car a prerequisite? Even the previous legal definitions of "Rent-a-Cab program operator" use the words "rent of cabins" and do not require that the cabin be the property of the operating company. a) In the case of Transport Solutions Group vs. CCE (2006), the Mumbai Tribunal has ruled that there is no obligation for a Rent-a-Cab program operating company to own the leased cars.
b ) In the case of Ghanshyam Transport Vs. CCE (2009), it was found that if a trader is involved in hiring cabs for clients and providing these clients with transportation without even possessing or using a car, the Rental a-cab schemes operator must pay transportation taxes. According to the system of lists, any supply of goods or provision of rendering related to any other activity than that on the lists or exempt, is a VATable supply of goods or provision of rendering related to a particular activity.
Operators can rent a car and then rent it to a third person; they are handled like a rental driver. Similarly, in such a position, the proprietor of the car is also considered to be the cab manager when providing the rental services.
1. Section 7 Whether a charge is made for servicing taxes if the client rents the car on a KM rental fee base, a minimal ticket price is agreed and the chauffeur and petrol are provided by the supplier? Before 1 July 2012, i.e. in the favourable listing method of taxing, various jurisdictions found that such supplies were in the form of a "transport service" for the client, where neither ownership nor oversight of the client and supply taxes was transferred. a) In the case of Kuldip Singh Gill Vs.
cce[ 2006(3)) str689],[STO-2005-CESTAT-324] found that the kilometer driven car is not subject to services taxes. b) In the case of RS Travels Vs. cce[ 2008 (12) str27] [(2008) 15 st437 (New Delhi - CESTAT)], where the Court found that the cabin manager who provides a cab holder with a cab holder to travel from one place to another is that of a transport operation, either on a kilometre or on a flat-rate base, depending on the distances involved, and found that no VAT is due on services, since the cabin manager has full responsibility for controlling the vessel.
A similar position was taken in the case of Surya and Travels vs. CCE[2008 (10) Case 123 CESTAT, NEW DELHI]. c) In the case of the Cochin International Airports Prepaid Tax Operators Co-op society[2008 (16) Case 190 STT], the Court found that a cooperative consisting of cab operators who play to and from the airports cannot be regarded as managing a touristic car for the purposes of levying VAT on services.
All these judgments, however, relate to the'Rent a cab scheme operator' which had a legal meaning of u/s 65(91) and is no longer relevant in the system of lists. According to the authors, all formerly referred to as "transport services" are now taxable as car rental as well.
2. What kinds of Rent-A-Cab activities are not subject to tax? Passenger transport with or without objects carried by a coach; and measured taxi, wireless taxi or car rickshaw are included in the checklist and therefore not subject to tax. On the other hand, the intent could be to exclude wireless taxi operations from those licensed under a system set up by the State Executive u/s 74 and other requirements of the 1988 Motor Vehicles Act.
Vehicles should be provided with front mounted electric price gauges. Vehicles should be provided with GPS/GPRS-based positioning equipment which must be in permanent contact with the central processing units during use. Vehicles should be provided with a front plate cellular device for communicating between the operator and the licence holder's primary containment area.
There should be an LC panel on the car top indicating that the car is a wireless cab. 1. 1 Is ambulatory medical treatment excluded from hospitalisation? Section 2 of the mega-exemption notice No. 25/2012-ST of 20.06.2012 excludes healthcare provision that includes transport of patients to and from a hospital.
Therefore, there is no performance duty when hiring an ambulance. 2. 2. Are there exemptions for the provision of transport related transport related activities to an education establishment comprising education institutions within the framework of the promotion of student, lecturer or employee? Section 9 of the mega-exemption notice No. 25/2012-ST of 20.06.2012 excludes additional education and training related activities, which involve the transport of passengers, teachers or employees of such an establishment.
Whether it excludes the provision of education and training related to the promotion of student, lecturer or employee mobility by an education establishment, which includes education and training establishments, higher education institutions and university? No. 25/2012-ST of 20.06.2012, the provision of public conveyance with or without property by means of a contractual conveyance for public conveyance, with the exception of tourist, guided, charters or hiring, is also excluded. b) From one point to another; an integral part of a contractual conveyance is that it takes place within the framework of a contractual conveyance for a permanent group of persons and does not permit any other person to enter or leave the conveyance at will.
By its very nature, contractual haulage provides free movement for education and training establishments. 25/2012-ST of 20.06.2012, rental and leasing related activities - (a) to a public carrier (pursuant to 2 para. 42 Kfz-Gesetz, 1988), a car intended to be used to haul more than twelve persons; (b) to a freight company, a means of conveyance; is excluded.
When is the Reverse Charge Mechanism - RCM suitable for Rent-A-Cab servicing? Pursuant to Section 68(2) of the Finance Act 1994, the central government is authorised to report those supplies of goods or provision of related legal assistance in respect of which the recipient of the supply of goods or provision of related legal assistance is liable for payroll taxes to the specified amount and not to the supplier.
Central Government has published Notification No. 30/2012-ST of 20.06.2012 and RCM is also valid for the Rent-A-Cab services if all the following requirements are met: illustrate in various instances to show whether or not the reverse-charge mechanism is applied, on the assumption that both the supplier and the recipient are situated in the chargeable area.
When is the discount available for the Rent-A-Cab services? According to No. 9 of the Communication No. 26/2012-ST of 20.06.2012, a 60% discount is available on Rent-A-Cab services, i.e. the rental of passenger cars. This means that the services duty is to be paid only on 40% of the value of the Rent-A-Cab-services.
This reduction is conditional on the fact that the credits granted by Celvat for intermediate consumption, investment goods and intermediate consumption used to provide the rateable supply of goods have not been used in accordance with the 2004 Celvat Rules on Credits. No reduction is possible if the supplier provides credits to Kenvat for the provision of car rental car rental in the form of loans for the provision of car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental car rental.
Is Cenvat Credit available in the Rent-A-Cab services? 244 (Car.)] stated that the transport / car rental services are provided by the assessors for their staff to arrive at their company site on schedule, which has a positive impact on the production work. Indeed, the worker is also eligible for a promotion payment which would be part of his working conditions.
Therefore, it can easily be interpreted as a social action by refusing the claimant the use of credits from Kenvat for the provision of transport as a fundamental need that has a positive impact on productive activities. However, e.g. 01-04-2011, the central government has changed the definitions of "input service" according to Regulation 2(l) of the CBR, 2004 video message No. 3/2011 - CE(NT) of 01-03-2011 and again video message No. 18/2012 - CE(NT) of 17-03-2012 (w.e.f. 01-04-2012).
As a result of the change, the car rental sector has been explicitly exempted from the concept of "input service" and therefore, as a rule, no credits of any kind are available. It is only available if the rental of a taxi can be associated with a car of great value to you.
This means, in other words, that if a car intended for the carriage of persons, complete with their undercarriage, is licensed on behalf of the supplier of the services, if it is used for the provision of the initial services of (i) passenger transport or (ii) the hiring of such a car, or (iii) the provision of engine power, credits from Penvat can be used.
What is the actual amount at which the supplier has to bear the VAT on services? 8.2 What is the actual amount at which the recipient must levy the supply duty? Recipient of the services pays 4. 944% VAT (i.e. 12. 36% of the 40% value) only if a reversal batch is used.
Its obligation to disburse VAT on services shall not be affected by the use of credits from Kenvat or the non-use by the supplier. If RCM is not available, the beneficiary is not obliged to contribute taxes. The following is a flowchart of the actual levy to be paid by the supplier and beneficiary in various situations:
NB: 1. if the supplier has not claimed a Penvat benefit, i.e. if a reduction is available, the supplier or the recipient must pay 4.944% VAT, either from the supplier or from the recipient, according to the application of RCM. In case the supplier has made use of a loan from Kenvat, i.e. if the reduction is not available, the entire amount of the VAT is to be paid at 12 Euro.
Recipient: 36% by the supplier or together with the recipient, according to the RCM use. Concerning the beneficiary, he pays @ 4. 944% only if RCM is applied, regardless of the reduction.
