AGREE THIS........................
Excess service tax paid can be adjusted in subsequent month/quarter under Rule 6(4A) of service tax rules. The maximum limit of such adjustment is Rs 2 Lakhs. Such adjustment will be allowed provided that the reasons for such adjustment shall be provided to superintendent within 15 days of such adjustment.
thanks for sharing

Yes, it is necessary to intimate to the department about excess payment otherwise department may not allow such adjustment. And you may have to apply for refund of such excess amount paid. Moreover, claim for refund is to be filed within one year.
Just sent a letter stating reasons for excess payment made. After making adjustment of excess amount paid you need to inform the department about such adjustment made.
is there is any option available for adjusting in any other accounting code or for any other sevice
