The service tax is payable on accrual basis. The invoice was raised on 01/04/2012 for Rs.112360/- and service tax of Rs.12360/- was paid on 05/07/2012 on quarterly basis. However the payment was not recd against the invoice raised on 01/04/2012 till 05/01/2013. Can the service tax payer subtract the liability of service tax for the quarter ended 31/12/2012 by Rs.12360/- on account of non receipt of payment for invoice raised on 01/04/2012 within 3 to 6 months ?

A BPO service provider for the purpose of pick & drop facility for their employees, is taking services of transportation agency(motor veichle hire). So the service receiver is paying service tax as per partial Reverse charge mechanism.
Whether the service receiver can get credit of service tax paid ?
Whether it could be said that this service is related to core business ?
