for last year you have to account for on the basis of accrual and if your turnover is above 50 lakhs then only you have to pay the advance tax. Since you have not mentioned full details it is the payment first and then the return.
but right now i dont have sufficient money to pay service tax, should i filled return showing payable to avoid penalty action against non filling of returns on time. when i get the money from client i will pay the liability with interest amount.
