Individuals and Prop.ship firm registered under ST rules are liable to pay ST in POT rules or Actual receipt from client...ie whether they can pay ST to govt. after getting ST from client eventhough they raise the bill?
Individuals and partnership firms having a turnover upto Rs.50 lakhs in the immediately preceding financial year have an option to pay service tax on receipt basis..i.e when they actually receive it from their client...in all other cases it has to be remitted on the basis of bills raised..
