Point of taxation rules has done away with the provision of cash basis. Under these rules service tax becomes payable on accrual basis. Therefore freight accounted in books during May 2012 irrespective of payment to transporter, service tax needs to be paid by june 6th . You may refer to point of taxation rules in this regard.
