Service tax under reverse charge

Hi,

While depositing service tax under reverse charge, which accounting code is to be used? Specific service code or the general code i.e.1089?

Kindly revert

From July1 2012, one Accounting code head for every service has been notified. So these accounting codes are to be used to deposit service tax for respective services whether deposited by service provider or under reverse charge by service recipient. https://www.servicetax.gov.in/circular/st-circular12/st-circ-165-2012.htm

this one accounting code system was removed by the notification.

For accounting purpose, revenue is demanding to deposit in respective accounting heads.

 

Please do use respective accounting code.

 

Accounting code has been restored and the same to be used even in case of Reverse charge case.

Mr. Maheshwari is right. Accounting codes are different for every service. Service provider or recipient has to deposit s.tax in respective code.

thanks to all those who responded smiley

Use service specific accounting code, for example if you are liable to pay tax on works contract, use accounting code 00440410.

If you wrongly pay tax in any other accounting code, then also nothing to worry.
