Service Tax

Mr. Rajesh is right. The change rate is effective from the date of notification only. Prior to that use 12.36%  only as service tax rate.

Dear Sir,

What about services provided prior to the date of notification but bill is being prepared after notification,

does it imply that even if I raise bill for the services rendered 2 months back , it should be charged @ 10.30 and not 12.36.

Logically its not acceptable,

Is there any clarification from department regarding the same.
