16 August 2011 billed dated 31-03-2011 means service provided in year ended march 2011, hence the payment only is due under sundry debtors (bills receivable) but the turnover is booked in the year of billing.

export of services is exempt from service tax provided 1) services so provided are consumed out of india 2) payment is received in convertible foreign exchange through proper banking channels.
