Service tax-credit

When we have service tax liability at the end of month and we have to pay it in cash then we have to pay it thorugh GAR-7 Challan withen 5th/6th of the following month.

 

But what when we have excess cenvat and we need not to pay any service tax in cash

what is the treatment then ? we won't pay anything by challan..so in this case too is there any limit like we have to pass the utilization entry of cenvat entry by 5th/6th ??

I am really confused in treatment where service tax is paid through cenvat

Dear Mukesh,

If u r registered under Service Provider, then you have to utilise your Input service tax accrued credit for dicharging Service Tax liability entire month (succeding month 5th or 6th).

If u have registered as Service Receipient in ST2 means, you have to pay your ST liability thru GAR7 by way of CASH only. 

 

I am talking about service provider under normal charge

Who will check whether I pass an entry in Tally (Assuming it as my accounting software) withen 5/6th or not?

How will the service tax dept know that cenvat credit has been uitlized till 5/6th ?? (Just on the basis of accounting entry) ?????
