for november, 2011 exam purposes it is on Payment Basis.

SErvice tax is applicable on accrual basis effective from 01-07-2011, Howver there are certain category of service on which service tax is payable on receipt basis. These service are ; Practicing CA, CS & ICWA, Architect Engineer, Advocate etc.
