20 February 2014 sir can you refer the section please of IT/Service Tax.

20 February 2014 for income tax it is sec 145A but for service tax is not mentioned.

20 February 2014 I would respectfully deny with the statement since sec 145A does not mention that.(refer https://law.incometaxindia.gov.in/Directtaxlaws/act2005/section145a.htm)
furthur reference (https://www.bareactsonline.com/pdfs/2010/THE%20FINANCE%20(No.%202)%20BILL,%202009.pdf) pg30

21 February 2014 Then refer sec 145 which prescribes method of accounting.
