One of my client have collected Service tax on rent of immovable property in the month of April 09 after the high court order, which he was not suppose to do because the DH has held rent on commercial immovable property unconstitutional.

Now he asked me should he deposit that ST to government or refund back to the party.

In my opinion:
The service tax collected should be deposited to the govt within due date and henceforth he should not collect ST from the party unless and until Supreme Court gives contradictory order to DHC.

Am I Correct?
