Quick Summary
Yes, it is generally compulsory to pay GST on advance amounts received for services. You'll need to calculate the tax on the advance payment and include it when filing your monthly returns. Remember that the advance received is considered inclusive of GST, and you must charge it even if the exact tax rate isn't determined at that point, typically at 18%. If the point of sale is unclear, it may be treated as an interstate supply, requiring IGST.
