@Somu First & for most you have to maintain the books of account, which shall be used both for Service tax & income tax purpose.
You are liabile for Service tax as your gross receipts exceeds Rs lakhs. This is not a cost for you, As Mr.Nitin said you will be collecting it from your customer & pay it to Service tax department. REMEMBER that Service tax is payable on Receipt basis, inother wordsservice tax is payable at the time of collection of money from your customer. Payment shall be made on or before 5th of next month (collection). Whereas Income tax shall be payable based on the total income from all the sources of income during one full year april to march. @Nitin - Payment of service tax shall be made on or before 5/6 of succeeding month ?

Whether you are a consultant or Employee? If you act as an employee, you cannot invoice to them, onthe other hand if you are a consultant, you can issue the bills. Even if the compnay does not pay the service tax amount, you are supposed to pay Service tax, by reverse calculation method. For Eg.if the bill amount is Rs110.30 (being Rs100 + 10.30 as ST) & the customer pays only Rs100/- in full & final settlement, then Rs (100*10.30)/110.30 =9.35 is ST & balance Rs.99.65 is your income.
