Does it mean that fee belongs to 2015-16 year, and you made a provision for fee including service tax, in March month without having an invoice?

yes, invoice belongs to 15-16 and we make provision in mar 16 and bill recived in oct 16

If the bill is dated Oct'16 and you have set off the input service tax against output service tax payable in March'16. Then, it has been wrongly taken and you are liable for interest amount.

If you can manage invoice dated Mar'16, then take it for 50,000 and balance of 10,000, dated Oct'16.

Consult your CA for solution.

You have shown it in oct-mar 2017 return. It's correct then. Because, invoice date is within the period of the return filed. Right!?

 

You can revise oct-mar 2017 return to claim full credit on 50,000.

 

Correct​ me if I misunderstood your query.

I have taken the credit of service tax in oct 16-mar 17 return. i want to know the journal entry which i have to pass in oct-16 seperating service tax.

Input service tax Dr. total credit

Audit fees Dr.  bal fig

To audit fees payable (total amount minus amount recognised earlier)
