Dear Professional Colleagues,
I am having query regarding service tax. My company has not taken service tax registration under service tax till feb 2012 end but it was liable to pay service tax. Company has taken registration only in the month of march 2012 and has paid service on his service tax liability for whole year.
Now company wants to recover service tax from client but clients are refusing to pay service tax since as per clients company was not registered for service tax till feb whereas services were provided before taking service tax registration( Suppose services were provided in Jan 2012 month).
Give your opinions friends what company has to do whether it can recover service tax from clients or not and what company has to do now.

Thanks & Regards
Mayank

If the service is completed by 31st March 2012. Is it compulsory to raise the bill on 31 st March 2012 as per the mercantile concept.
I raised the bills for services rendered between 25-31 st March on 3rd April . What should be the rate of tax as per the mercantile concept. Should I raise the bill on 31st March Itself?

Dear Members,
As per new Rule Service Tax is payable at the time of billing of or at the time of service provided, whichevere is earlier.
I have not received any amount against the service provided in FY 2011-12. But i have to pay service tax on the amount charged from my clients.
Now the question is that when i fiilling ST-3, If i m not filling the colom of (I)(a)(i) of sheet payable Service, then sheet is not validate ans shows that Taxable Value should be equal to service tax rate wise break up of Taxable Value. However actually i have not received any amount against service provided so it is not correct in my view?
Please let me know that is the ST-3 form is correct as per new point of Taxation Rules?? If Yes the how i fill the form when i have not recived any amount agaist service Provided??
Please Reply soon??
