29 December 2010 In case of non-corporate assessees, the due date for payment of service tax is the 5th of the subsequent month following the quarter, i.e. for April - June 2010 the due date is 5th July 2010 and for the July - September 2010 is 5th October 2010.

Interest has to be paid @ 13% per annum on the delayed period. The calculation would be as under:
((Service Tax x 13%)/365)x No.of days delay.

The Department retains the right to levy a penalty of Rs.200 per day of delay or 2% per month whichever is higher subject to the maximum claim equal to the service tax payable.
