20 April 2009 service tax liability occures on actual receipt of tax

21 April 2009 TDS is a constructive payment. If we interpreate tds as receipt, you need to pay Rs. 106/-(10.3 X 1136 / 110.3) in FY 08-09.

How ever, normally, tds certificated are received after the end of Financial year. Taking a liberal view, the tax payble should arise in FY 09-10.

Since two views are possible, you should seek more opinion.

21 April 2009 Service tax liablity is raised on actual receipt basis. once payment will received, you will relised you liablity with that month service tax dues.

21 April 2009 Thank you very much.
