07 April 2009 Pune branch is claiming refund of service tax while bangalore branch is paying service tax. both the branches has separate registration.

can the service tax refund of one branch be set off against the service tax liability of other?

Is there any notification or circular or any provision in the service tax for the same?

You should get one registration under service tax and for all others you get like branches under one head office. And start filing service tax return at the head office instead of each branch. Therefore you can set off liability of one branch with that of input service tax available of other branch.

If you have two seperate registrations then you cannot claim set off.
