dear Sir
we are registered as Goods Transport By Road as service receiver liable to pay service tax & we are paying 25% of fregiht bill which not leived service tax.

we let to know that can we take credit of the service tax paid (i.e. 25 % of freight on which s.t. is applicable)

we are planning to form a new co. which will be a service organization. whether we should get it registered under service tax in the beginning only when we are not sure about the turnover that whether it will exceed rs 10 lakh... ?? after getting it registered can we avail the exemption benifit??

Sir

We are a part of a Govt Company and we have contract with transporters for stock transfer from our HQ to Branch office.We are paying Service Tax as a service receipient on the Bills raised by the transporter.The service was provided in the month of Jan'12 Bill was raised in Feb'12 and we made the payment in April'12.I want to know wheather we have to pay the ST @ 10% or 12%.Pls help its urgent.

we have to pay Service tax on accrual basis
ie) Date of Payment, Date of providing services, or date of billing which ever is earlier.

If I billed for Rs.20000+ST ie) Rs.22,060/-
in Jan 2012 and i paid the service tax in March 2012.

What i have to do?

There is any provision to reverse the amount of Service tax paid?
