Service tax

My company had an agreement with  an AMC contractor and in the agreement it is made very clear that the contractor had to pay the minimum wages, espi, pf  and other statutory benefits to be extended to them.  However, employer portion of  PF, it will be reimbursed to the contractor upon producing the proof of payment to PF Authorities.  Is it correct?.  Now, the company is asking for reimbursement and on that also service tax he is demanding.  Whether that is also correct.

First part of the question is fine but second part that the company is asking for reimbursement, is not clear.

If contractor is paying PF or reimbursement of PF of workers from company then no service tax is applicable.PF is a legal deposited amount .

If contractor raised a separate invoice for PF/ESI amount from the principle employer then service tax is liable to pay by contractor itself.
