Dear experts, We are a partnership firm providing CHA services. Since our liability to pay service tax on output services is on quarterl basis, we opted to pay service tax under GTA also on quarterly basis.
Are we correct in doing so? Can we pay GTA liability on monthly basis?

As per Rule 6 of Service Tax rules 1994, assessee in case of partnership firm require to pay Service tax on quarterly basis, irrespective of the type of type of service provided.
However, if you willing to pay Service taxes for GTA on monthly basis, you can do so but it will be treated as advance payment of Service tax and you need to follow the principle lay down under rule 6(1A) of the said rules

Dear Kumar Sir, In such case, can I adjust the GTA liability paid in the month of April & May while paying output service tax in July i,e service tax liability of Q1.
In detail for eg: April - GTA liability - 500/- Output ST liability - 9000/- GTA liab of 500/- paid on May 1st May - GTA liability - 600/- Output ST liability - 10000/- GTA liab of 600/- paid on June 1st June -GTA liability - 700/- Output ST liability - 11000/- GTA liab of 700/- paid on July 1st
Now, while remitting the service tax liability for Q1 (9000+10000+11000)=30000, can i adjust the GTA liability paid (500+600+700)=1800? Net payable will be 28200 (30000-1800)
