13 December 2008 Suppose i have purchased goods and the supplier has given it to transporter on last day of the month (say 30.06) (inv. date is also the last day of the month) but the material is received in the next..

transporter's LR is also of the last date of the month. (30.06)

NOw for the purpose of complying with the statutory matter i.e. Service tax on GTA and TDS on the transport bill which date shall be considered.. (as both shall be deposited with the govt. by 5th July and 7th July)

WE are booking purchase etc. on GRN basis then in such case my transaction will be booked in books of a/c. on 1st July.

So in above case whehter i have to pay TDS & service tax by 5th & 7th July ? or i can take the GRN date and pay it by 5th& 7th Aug.
