25 September 2012 We have to pay service tax for FY2008-09.
How we have to calculate interest?
It is to be calculated @18% i.e. present rate from 2008-09 till date or rate of interest applicable for respective years?

please guide whether to apply present interest rate 18% or different interest rates for different years?

25 September 2012 Rate of 18% for all years

25 September 2012 Interest is to be Calculated on Basis of Years on Present rate Only.


25 September 2012 agreed with expert...

if payment of service tax is delayed in accordance with provision section 68 interest will be charged not below 10% and not exceed 36% per Annum REFER TO SECTION 75 OF F.A. 1994.
