Security Services is liable under reverse charge ,if following condition are fulfilled
Delete1. Security services are provided by Individual/HUF/Firm/AOP and
2. Service receiver is Body Corporate.
If any of the condition is not fulfilled then service provider is remain liable to deposit the service tax.
Further Service tax department has issued direction only regarding who will deposit the how much amount as service tax . There is no bar placed by service tax department to recover the 25 % service tax from service receiver.
Recovery of service tax from service receiver is guided by contract between service provider /service receiver.
If contract rates are exclusive of service tax or service tax extra then you can recover tax from service receiver .
If director is traeted as employee of the company and if he receive any thing extra say fees for attending board meeting in such a case whether service tax is payable on such receipts.Here service provider and receipient relation is missing
