One of my client has recently got registration on 20.04.2015 & started providing services under "work contract". I want to know Service tax will be charged according to point of taxation rules where(invoice issued with in 30 days from the date of completion of service, date of invoice & date of receipt of payment which ever is earlier) or according to rule (6) of section 1994 where (service tax is payable on receipt basis when turnover doesn't exceeds Rs: 50 lac during Financial Year). Please clarify it, should I charge service tax according to Point of taxation rule or rule (6) of 1994 of Finance act as mentioned above?

Service tax has to be paid according to Point of taxation Rule.
Adoption of Point of Taxation rules for services which would shift the basis for tax collection from “cash” towards “accrual” basis as with Central Excise duty.

Raman ji, I also confuse when I read below article as mentioned: "In case of Individual, Proprietor, Partnership firms whose aggregate value of taxable services provided from one or more premises is Rs:50 lac or less during the financial year, In this case service tax will be paid on receipt basis as per finance act 1994 rule (6) of rule 68, here point of taxation will not be considered

Yes up to 50 lacs it can be paid on cash basis.
As per Point of Taxation Rules were made w.e.f. 1-4-2011 mainly to provide that service tax will be payable on accrual basis. The exception is that where value of taxable services in previous year were less than ` 50 lakhs, service tax can be paid on receipt basis (i.e. cash basis) instead of accrual basis.

Ok, thanks a lot. I was very confused about it when I came across this article. By the way if my client pay tax according to Point of taxation rule intentionally assuming turnover is below than 50 lac, not pay tax on receipt basis. Any problem in future by CBEC????
