Hi,
In the current finance bill there was service tax leveid on all properties under construction on the buyer. I have purchased a flat in Nov 2008, its still under construction. So far I have released 90% of the total sale value to the builder. Will I have to pay the service tax as part of this finance bill even though I have got into an agreement in Nov 2008? Any help on this would be highly appreciated.

Swaroop

We had provided a service to a Japanese MNC in India and raised a Service Invoice in USD to Japan Head office with Charged Service Tax @10.3. now we have received payment from Japan in excess due to rate conversion. So please clarfy that service tax payable is actual charged or actual received if it is actual received so what entry is made for this.

Dear Friends,
This half yeary service tax return last date on 25th April (Saturday). Thats why i have deposited service tax return on 28th April as per service tax rule but our Service tax inspector denied to accept service tax return. He said you can deposit service tax return alongwith Rs500/- late fee.
where can we pay the penalty amount ?
and is there any separate form to pay penalty ?
