For cases in which RCM is applicable, if 100% Service Tax is reimbursed to Service Provider,i.e. Service Receiver pays 100% Service Tax as per Invoice to The Service Provider only and does not deposit the 50% (or applicable) part directly to Govt, what will be consequences regarding Interest and Penalty?
Usually Small Service Providers raise bill with 100% Service Tax and if we pay half of Service Tax to Govt,they sometimes create problem saying that they have already deposited the full amount of Service Tax as per Invoice to Govt. What could be the solution in this case?

Please guide in his regard
