THE BILLING DATE IS THE MAIN FACTOR OF CHARGING SERVICE TAX.. If your billing date is on or after 24 February 2009 you should claim 10% + 2% + 1% SERVICE TAX otherwise 12% + 2% + 1%
It is not the billing date but the date when the services were provided which is important to decide the rate of service tax. Hence, service provided prior to 24.02.2009 will be billed with ST @ 12.36% and services provided w.e.f 24.02.09 will be billed with ST of 10.3%
