15 October 2011 Dear Sir please tell me when our service tax liability,when we book bill or when we made payment,service tax return,payment due date

15 October 2011 In service tax, there are three events as follow:

1. Completion of service

2. Issue of Invoice

3. Receipt of payment

With introduction of point of taxation rules 2011, now service tax in normal case is payable on accrual basis.

Normal provision as per rule 3 of POT rules 2011 are as follows:

Point of taxation shall be

1. Issue of invoice or receipt of payment,
Whichever is earlier
( If invoice is issued within 14 days from the date of completion of services under rule 4A of STR, 1994)

or

2. Completion of service or receipt of payment,
whichever is earlier
( If invoice is not issued within 14 days from the date of completion of services under rule 4A of STR, 1994)

or

3. Date of receipt of advance payment.

Example:1

Suppose date of completion of service is 31.10.211

Date of issue of invoice is 12.11.2011

date of receipt of payment is 15.11.2011
