How can it be showing as payable in Balance Sheet, without passing from P&L A/c.....
What entry did you pass for it?
It would be disallowed u/s 43B of I.T. Act, 1961.

If service tax is not routed through P/l Account, no question of disallowances occur since it is not booked as expense.
Advised to check the Service tax entry methods..!!
