Assessee was required to collect the service tax from the service receivers 2 years back. But assessee did not collect & the same was completely borned by the assessee & paid along with the interest during the PY 2011-12.
Can we claim the said amount of service tax as an expenditure in Profit & Loss account for the year ended 2012?
