Construction contracts are a type of continuous supply of service contracts as work gets completed in stages.
As per Proviso to Rule 3 of Point of taxation Rules,2011 In case of construction contracts date of completion of events specified in the agreement is the date of completion of provision of services and service tax liability shall arise on such dates. Therefore service tax is to be paid in stages and not at once.
