You are not entitled to avail the credit on accrual bais and therefore you maybe asked to pay interest for the early credits availed.
 

As far as payment in advacne on accrual basis, dept may not object as tax paid earlier.

What is required to be done is to prepare a reconciliation between the values and arrive at value on which advance payment made. In future as and when receipts are there confirm whether part of reco or not. If not pay the ST on the same.

As far as the credit is concerned, see which have been taken in advacne and reverse the credit. Avail only on payment.
