[Bharat patel]

dear sir

we produce plastic bag or pouch and plastic film under chapter heading 39.

now we are paid service tax on inward and outward transportation through monthly basis by every month before 5th.

but my query is if we are paid above service tax on quarterly basis so only service tax paid or with interest paid.

please advise

thanks a lot

Service tax is payable on monthly basis. You are not having option to pay it quarterly.

Yes sir, if you have paid service tax on quarterly basis, then you have to pay service tax with interest.

[MARIAPPAN GOVINDARAJAN]

My sincere advice is not to have option to service tax quarterly. Interest payment is a separate issue. Penal provisions will attract for failure to pay the service tax.

Dear Sir,

As per my view, if you are paying service tax monthly, please continue to pay.

Dear Chetan Ji,

The liabiltiy for partnership firm is on quarterly basis.
