Should i have to make provision for service tax?

Service tax liability is occer when the amount of service  and service tax has been received, I have provieded the taxable service but i haven't received any amount.

Should i have to made the provision of service tax in the books of account on the services i have provided in the accounting year ending or not.

Yes. Our accounts are based on accrual system. Although no actual liability arises but recognition of service income on accrual basis permits u to do so. Morever that liability cannot be added u/s 43B.

c) a relible estimate can b made of the amt of the obligation.
