Proper place for readOnly attribute in Spring @Transactional annotation

if a method from service layer calls a method from repository layer in the same transaction, then is it efficient to put readOnly attribute to service method or repository method?

The typical location for the @Transactional annotation is in the service layer. Your service may call a number of repository methods so it is more efficient to have transactions spanning the single service call rather than have more for individual repository/DAO calls.

It is the correct approach if you have multiple DAOs injected into that service that need to work together in a single transaction.
