24 January 2012 Liability of service tax has nothing to do with method of accounting system followed........Now w.e.f 01.07.2011 point of taxation will be the date of issue invoice if it is raised within 14 days of completion of service......If invoice is not raised within 14 days then date of completion of service will be the point of taxation.

IN your case depending on the nature of case service tax will be calculated....Further amount of Rs. 65.36 is not correct if it is assumed that amount of Rs. 700 you have received is not in full & final settlement......
