For non corporates the same date after the close of each quarter.
2. 18% simple interest per annum.
3. To be calculated for the number of days delay.

04 October 2011 Thanks for your early reply,

Please tell me interest will be calculated after first date of crossing the service tax date (06th or 05th) or calculated from Invoice date.

Thanks

04 October 2011 IF you are paying service through manual challan then last date is 05th of every month or through using online payment service then last date is 06th of every month. Accordingly you can count interest day from 05th or 6th onwards.
