Dear colleagues

Our client is collecting service tax on export of services.

However due to fluctuation in foreign currency, service tax accounted will be different from what is actually received.

My query is

assessee should remit the amount of service tax accounted in the books at the time of invoicing or

the amount of service tax actually collected

Thanks and regards

My question is regarding cenvat credit on input service.i know the cenvat credit on service is taken on payment basis but my doubt is whether cenvat is taken as per payment entry in books of account on date the cheque is issued to service provider or the date on which it is cleared by our bank.

this confusion mostly arises at the month end entries

1. Is donation in any form money or materials from its members of a Club for construction of their own building exempt from Service Tax?

2. My Club's income is Rs. 16 lacs. Is the base limit of 10 lakhs for exemption available to us? I mean whether the Club has to pay ST on 16 lacs or 6 lacs (It has been paying ST on full value since the introduction or ST)

3. Suppose, if we have paid excess ST how to get back the amount from the Govt?
