Service Tax on Related parties

I have a query with regard to Union Budget 2008 changes.

The explanation to sec.67 has been amended to include the following:

(7b) "associated enterprise" has the meaning assigned to it in section 92A of the Incometax Act, 1961;

(c) "gross amount charged" includes payment by cheque, credit card, deduction from
account and any form of payment by issue of credit notes or debit notes and book adjustment, and any amount credited or debited, as the case may be, to any account, whether called “Suspense account” or by any other name, in the books of account of a person liable to pay service tax, where the transaction of taxable service is with any associated enterprise.’

In view of the above change, let us consider a scenario. I am a service provider. I provide services to A (related party) and B (not a related party). I send an invoice for services rendered to both A and B. The invoice is for 100000 service rendered and service tax @ 12% which is 12000, for a total of 112000.

Now, should i pay the service tax on the transaction with A immediately, without waiting for A to pay me the amount?

In respect of B, i would be paying the amount of 12000 service tax, only after B pays me the amount of 112000.

Because of the budget changes, am i liable for service tax as soon as i treat A as my Debtor (being a related party)?

Can someone please clarify? That would greatly help.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards / VIjay

Service Tax on Immovable Property

As our tenent has refused to pay the service tax on the rent amount of
Rs. 210000 per month. Can we now consider the total rent amount reveived now of Rs. 210000 per month as RENT including service tax i.e. (186900+23100 service tax)???
Can we now deposit service tacx of 12.36% on an amount of 186900 or Rs. 23100 instead of 12.36% of Rs.210000 which works out to be Rs. 25956 ?
Thanks
