Interest on delay in payment of service tax

Due to a new change in interest rates of delay in payment of service tax we are facing a confusion.

What will be the interest on 100000 service tax payable in the month of dec2015 and paid in 17 aug 2016.

RATES BEFORE WERE 18% AND NOW IS 15%

 total turnover is below 60L hence benefit of 3% is also available.

Hi Hardik,

I am providing you the detail analysis on above with example. There was a circular of department at relavant time. Where in page number 5 paragraph 3.1 of that circular, department explains the answer to this situation.

Hope, above information serves your purpose.
