A service Provider who had provided Taxable service in 2007, can claim the amount of Service Tax from service Receipint if not claimed in 2007. If so, whether Service receipint is liable to pay service Tax in 2009 or can deny the liability of service Tax now

If you pay in 2009 as a recepient you can enjoy the service tax credit.
However the service provider will need to raise a Invoice.
There is no supplimentary invoice provision in service tax, that means he has to raise invoice afresh, quoting relevance of the previous invoices
