Pay on full amount and in case of advance payment pay on advance amount.

 In case of Individuals or Proprietary Concerns and Partnership Firm, service tax is to be paid on a quarterly basis. The due date for payment of service tax is the 5th of the month immediately following the respective quarter ( in case of e-payment, by 6th of the month immediately following the respective quarter). For this purpose, quarters are: April to June, July to September, October to December and January to March. However, payment for the last quarter i.e. January to March is required to be made by 31st of March itself.

There for, As per New Rule You Have to Pay Service tax on Full Amount

As per point of taxation rules, liability to pay service tax accrues only at the time of raising the invoice or at the time of receipt of money which ever is earlier. Hope it clears your doubt.

Thanx a lot for the above reply

 

I have a doubt regarding Due date payment of Ap Vat.

I know that due date is 20th of the following mnth.

But my doubt is 20 days of what ????? it is with in 20 days following the mnth in which payment received? or account credited ? or Invoice raised?

Plz help...

Thq

Principally, liability to pay VAT is at the time of raising the tax invoice. SO, under AP VAT, the due date for payment of VAT liability is 20th of the following month in which the tax invoices are raised.

As per service tax rule service tax payable on due basic not realise basic

so pay service tax whole amount,even you receive part payment, As far as advance service tax received is concern, pay  whole advance service tax also

Thanks
