Better you open these three accounts
1. Input Service Tax account in Asset side (I) 2. Output Service Tax account in Liability side (O) 3. Service Tax Payable A/c on liability side (P)
whenever you make pjv for services availed, debit I for service tax component. whenever you make sjv for seervices rendered, credit O for service tax component. At month end review the receipts against services and transfer corresponding amount of O to P. Similarly, review the payments against services received and transfer correspondingg amount of I to P. If there is credit balance in P(an ideal situation), then you have to deposit service tax in due course.
You may open separate IOP accounts for respective servies as per your convenience/requirements.
