Service Tax liability is payable on the 6th of the subsequent month for bodies corporate and 6th of the month subsequent to the end of the quarter for others. There is no period for payment of outstanding dues - whether a SCN cum Demand is issued or not. If the tax and interest is paid within 30 days of issue of SCN, then the penalty leviable is reduced to 25% of the amount payable. There is no provision for reduction of interest payable.
