Service Tax for Diagnostic Centres in India


"In the Union Budget of India for the year 2011-12, the Union Finance Minister spread the service tax net to the Healthcare Sector. All hospitals which are Centrally Airconditioned and have more than 25 beds will have to charge a service tax to the tune of 10%. Similarly all the Diagnostic Centres will also have to charge service tax. "
Is it a fair ask, considering standard healthcare is still out of reach of an average Indian, and it is bound to make things make expensive. Our thoughts are welcome.
