iF BILLS WERE RAISED IN THE MONTH OF MAY, THEN SAME SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO SERVICE TAX IN THE NEXT YEAR ONLY.
Answer By: Rishabh Upadhyay
Income will be recognized in the month the bill is raised by the company. In this case since3 the bill is raised in the month of April, so the income will also be part of income for the month of April.
Answer By: CA Satuti Mahajan
If the bills are raised in april, then they will be taken in the month of april not prior to that.

12-Jun-2012 , 12:13:32 amIncome should be booked in the month of March only. Coming to the taxation part Service tax is payable on determination of point of taxation .POT is date of issue of invoice or payment whichever is earlier.In this case if the payment has not been made earlier than issuing invoice then POT would be in april and tax would need to be paid in the month of may.(such invoice must be issued within 30 days otherwise date of completion of service or payment which ever is earlier.
