Door to door vegetable providing service company

sir
I am planning to open a vegetable service providing private limited company in jaipur, rajasthan. the main purpose of my service providing company is to provide fresh vegetables to the customers at their door. for this, I shall buy the whole lot of vegetables in morning and sell it to the customers.As i am providing the service at their door to the customers so i want to know that whether i need to pay sales tax and service tax for the service providing to them and selling to them. I am bit confused as i read somewhere that you need not to pay any sale tax on selling vegetable as it is in exempted item, and same as the case with service tax as i am not adding any thing to vegetable or saying editing its prime nature, so i need not to pay service tax on it.
kindly enlighten me whether i need to pay tax on it any type of tax.

thanks

You are correct to understand that not Service, so service tax is not applicable.
Since, you will purchase vegetable in a big/ small lot and deliver to doorstep, it is only sale but in Indian states all fresh Vegetable is are sales/ vat or GST tax free good. therefore, No taxable liability arise and need not to obtain registration in most circumstances.

If you want to do through on line appropriate tax shall apply. Being vegetable GST indication is exempted. But being a private limited company, doing commercial transaction, better to consult a Professional on GST matters for right advise and to be tax law compliant.

In most of the states agricultural market product fee is charged on agricultural products. Confirm in your case.
