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??

dear sir

1) I want to pay service tax for mar'12
service tax payable 10000
service tax input credit 5800
total service tax payable 4200

for getting actual figure of ST,EC,SHEC
I did reverse calculation, it is correct ?
Because there is no separate ledger maintain by us for EC,SHEC
than I got
ST 4078
EC 82
SHEC 41

2) due to late payment I have to pay interest on it
But on the instruction side of the form they have mentioned the code
for late payment for ST & EC, SHEC
so my question is shall I divide the interest element in to
three parts i.e ST, EC, SHEC because they have provided the
code for that

Service tax ( 00440045 & for interest / penalty 00440046 for clearing & forwarding agency )

primary education cess (00440298 & for interest / penalty 00440299 )

Secondary and higher education cess (00440426 & for interest / penalty 00440427 )

thanks
