Question Asked :-  
 
HDFC Bank is charging me service tax on interest of personal loan (availed under cr. card) EMIs being paid every month.Loan Interest is not any kind of service,whether bank has a right to charge service tax on loan interest?Bank replied as "We take this opportunity to clarify that as per current Government of India guidelines, service tax as applicable will be levied on the prescribed fees, interest and other charges as applicable from time to time. Service tax will be applied on each of the applicable items and will be reflected in the Cardmember's statement. We would like to inform you that the service tax has been recently revised from 12.24% to 12.36% effective from 11th May'07. Hence, all EMIs that are being billed currently carry the difference in the service tax as 'ADD CESS' and the same is payable by you." Is it correct on bank's part? Please advise. vijay chand  
 
Answer :-  
 
Banks do charge service tax on every charge. So there is nothing that you can do besides paying it.
