Tax Rules and collect service tax at the presribed rates
from the customers by billing to the customer for the
service rendered. The service tax collected to be deposited
with Govt.(Service Tax Dept.) on a quaterly basis or
monthly basis depends on the constitution of the
firm/company.

to be credited to respective revenue account and service
tax as per invoice also has to be credited to service tax
payable account and corresponding debit has to be given to
Cash/Party account(if credit).
