The finance ministry may exclude land value from the ambit of a new tax on under-construction houses, potentially taking the sting out of the proposed levy after it ran into a storm of protests from the real estate sector and exposed fissures within the government. The 2010-11 budget has proposed a 10% service tax on 33% of the total cost of under-construction houses, which could increase the price tag of such properties by 3.3%. The new tax will come into effect once the budget is approved by Parliament.

It is well known that exporters of services had faced serious problems in obtaining refunds of input taxes for a variety of reasons. In order to ameliorate the problem, the CBEC had issued Circular No. 120/01/2010-ST dated 19th January, 2010 to clarify several important points on exports of services from India and to also lay down a simplified procedure for grant of refunds.
While the Refund Notification has been in existence for more than three years, the Service tax department has been somewhat slow in processing the refund claims, on account of various procedural grounds. One of the primary issues of contention in this regard has been proof of nexus between the input services used and the output services exported.
