19 November 2015 Dear All,

Need your valuable suggestion on an issue:

One of my client (Pvt. Ltd. Company) is in beauty service industry providing skin & beauty services to customers. They provide services as package in which customer would have to come for service 4 to 10 times on monthly basis. Further payment is also received on Installment basis when they visit for taking service.

Now my question is how to pay service tax in this case? Whether liability for service tax will arise at the time of booking of service or on the basis of payment received.?

Further whether it is an example of continuous service?

Please Suggest ASAP !!

19 November 2015 You can modify the soft ware so that it will raise the invoice only for the amount received and keeping in memory the package cost details.
