I.e full month interest for part of the month as we do in tds ... please help me its urgent...

26 May 2015 In Service tax interest will be counted day wise, and not month wise, its 18% p.a. however if its taxable turnover is less than 60 Lacs you can take rebate of 3%, hence effective rate of interest will be 15%.
