Service Tax on Rent paid for office buildings?

For our rented office building, whethewr we need to pay service tax? if yes meens how much & from when.

Service tax is is to be paid by the service provider. If he wants to and capable of, it can be charged to the person availing service. For fear of losing a lucrative client, or on apprehension of non marketability, the service provider may choose to absorb the additional burden himself. In this case, it is an extended definition of service, and the finance bill is yet to be passed. Wait. There may be changes based on the debate in the Parliament and feedback received by the finance minister. Since you are a tenant, your outflow is governed by your contract only and you have no direct responsibility to pay service tax to the government. If the landlord insists for reimbursement of this burden on him, then be guided by your lawyer, whether to refuse and rub the landlord, negotiate and settle midway sharing or acquiesce and pay the amount.
