There are different types of service tax, and of which service tax is part of them. Nevertheless, we still have three different types of service tax. These would be discussed as we go further in this article.
1. Normal Charge: In this type, the service provider is the one that takes responsibility for paying the service tax. The service tax is charged from the service receiver by the service provider, then he collects and makes a deposit to the government. This is normally implemented in most cases.
2. Reverse Charge: Here, the service receiver pays the service tax, and he makes the deposit of the service tax to the government directly. This is a case that is rarely implemented.
3. Partial Reverse Charge: In this case, the service provider makes the payment of the service tax, and the service receiver also does. This simply means the service provider makes a deposit to the government, and the service receiver also makes a deposit directly. This case is the rarest of the three.
