21 April 2008 Service tax payments and credit, both are on payment basis, if u receive bill for last financial yaer but paid in current FY, the service tax is payable on the 5th of next month from the month in which paymwnt was made, same is the procedure for cenvat credit, credit can be availed only ag=fter payment, irrespective of period of actual billing.

Billing dates are important for the accounting purpose only, and have nothig to do with the service tax.
