Only Company assessee requires to pay service tax on monthly basis. Other assessee requires to pay quarterly basis. There is no 2 months delay in your case. You are required to pay interest for late payment of service tax on number of days basis. If you are small service provider then interest will be 15% otherwise 18% for delay payment up to 6 months.
