Campany name:ABC PVT. LTD.
PAYEE NAME:- XYZ.(ACCOUNTANT)

SERVICE TAX OF ABC PVT. LTD. COMPANY PAID THROUGH MR. XYZ INDIVIDUAL PERSONAL SAVING BANK ACCOUNT.

WHETHER THIS PROCESS IS LEGAL OR ILLEGAL, IF LEGAL KINDLY DESCRIBE

RESPECTED SIR...

WE (HLL LIFECARE LTD ) ARE LIABLE TO PAY THE SERVICE TAX ON GTA ... BUT FOR THE MONTH OF MARCH WE WANT TO PAY THE ST ON 31ST MARCH ITSELF.... BUT WE ARE NOT ABLE TO OBTAIN THE LR DETAILS AND SOME OF THE TRANSPORTATION BILLS FROM TRANSPORTERS...

SO OUR QUERY IS THAT WHETHER WE CAN PAY THE ST ON PROVISIONAL AMOUNT..IF YES THEN WHETHER WE WANT TO TAKE THE PRIOR APPROVAL OF CONCERN AUTHORITIES ... IF WE PAID THE EXCESS AMOUNT WHETHER WE CAN SET UP THE SAME IN SUBSEQUENT PAYMENT...SO PLEASE CONFIRM WHETHER ST LIABILITY IS ON PAYMENT BASIS OR ACCRUAL BASIS...

KINDLY ADVICE US IN THIS MATTER...

THANKING YOU,

hi, i want to know whether can we claim input service tax credit of services which we received for those output service for which we are not registered. ex. we are providing two type of services A and B, we are registered with department only for A services and we are received input service for B service. So can we claim input service tax credit of B services against A service tax liability. Or first we have to registered B service then we have to claim the said service Input tax credit.
because we have to make payment on 31.03.2012.

Dear All,

1)We are holding service tax registration with three services. Please advise whether we need to submit three service tax returns for each services or one return for all three services.

2)We are one company, one PAN no. having two separate divisions working in same premises/address. Please advise me, we take one or two service tax registration number?

Can payment of service tax be made by third party? for eg. Can Service tax liability of A ltd. can be paid by cheque of B Ltd. ??
