06 January 2014 In the ST - # Return for the period July to September 2012 the excess payment should have been shown i Part - C of the Return as Service Tax Paid in Advance. Only then can the credit be claimed in a later return.

In the Return for October 2012 to March 2013 the same amount should be entered in the relevant month in row D3, D4 or D5 as the case may be. In Part H1 the amount adjusted should be shown with the relavant challan number and Part H2 the details of the Source documents should be filled in.
