28 April 2013 Hello Experts,

Please guide me on the following Query

We have to file the Quarterly Return for July to Sept 2012 Period. We have paid the Service Tax for period Starting from July 2012 to March 2013 by Single online challan in the month of March 13 including Interst.

Now the confusion is how do we adjust the Payment of Tax in the ST3 Return for July to Sept 12. because the Challan amount is higher than what is due for this quarter.

Any restrictive provision is there to make the payment by separate challan for each quarter.

Thanks in Advance.

Kind Regards,
Dipak

30 April 2013 There is no such restrictive provision. Further you can show the challan details with the excess amount. The e-filed return is accepted in the system if the service tax payable is less than the service tax paid.However, for the sake of clarity, you could send a letter to the Department stating the service tax paid and interest paid for the respective periods.

11 June 2013 Yes I agree with the expert. Take the value of service of first quarter in this there is no problem For second quarter take gross deduct the value shown in first quarter and file the return for 2nd quarter and like wise for other quarters.
