In my opinion, you have to pay the service tax now i.e., till 5th of next month respect to month in which advance payment made.

 

Yes, you  have to pay the service tax on advance payment also as you being the service receiver  is liable to pay service tax on amount paid to GTA and in case GTA is liable to pay service tax, then service tax has to be paid on receipt basis, eventhough received in advance. Service tax is liable on gross amount received before, during or after provision of service.

 

Thanks for the response. Also pls let me know the relevant sections or rules where i could get the clarification related to the above statements. Regards Manish
