As per Rule 7 POTR, POT in case of Reverse Charge is the date of payment. Therefore Service tax to the extent of advance payment should be paid.

03 July 2015 Determination of point of taxation in case of person liable to pay service tax
under reverse charge or in case of associated enterprises - [Rule 7]

This rule determines the point of taxation in case of persons liable to pay service tax under reverse charge and in case of transactions with associated enterprise.

1) POT under reverse charge to be the ‘date of payment to the vendor’
The point of taxation in case where recipient of service is required to pay service tax under reverse charge shall be the date on which payment is made to the vendor for the services provided.

Thus, in your case date of payment is point of taxation and thus liable to pay service tax on advance payment.

Rgds,

Ramesh
