The services of tax consultants are taxable in the 1st April 2012. And hence the answer for your two queries are given below.
1) The liability starts when you cross 9 lacs in this current year starting from April 12.
2) From this year, the basis of exemption calculation is amended i.e from this accounting year onwards, the value of 10 lacs is not on receipt basis and it is on accrual basis. For e.g you have raised bills for 10.5 lacs but clients settled only 8 lacs and even then you have to take RC and can collect service tax for 50 thousand and have to pay the tax for 50K.
