My client has paid exccess service tax for the quarter October 08- March 09. The cenvat credit was adjusted first and then the excess amount paid was carried forward for adjustment for the next quarter under service tax rule 6(4A). But the self adjustment of excess paid amount was not intimated to the superintendent within fifteen days of adjustment.

Please let me know that in the above mentioned case can my client adjust the excess paid service tax amount in the next quarter April 09 - Sept 09.
