26 February 2016 Under the Point of Taxation Rules, RCM liability arises on payment of the expenses. In your case, the RCM arisees in the month of July. The date of completion of service applies to the service provider, not the service recipient. The liability of the service recipient starts on receiving the invoice for payment for services received and hence , the date of completion is immaterial from the point of view of the service recipient. therefore your liability arises either in July 2015 or November 2015 and not March 2015.

28 February 2016 For the service provider the Point of taxation would shift from FY 2014 - 15 to FY 2015 - 16, but for the service recipient paying the tax, no difference except that the liability would arise in July 2015 since, the creditor has to be paid off within 180 days.
