As we know that service tax is to be deposit after receipt of invoice amount. Some times it happens that at the time of receipt certain amount has been deducted by the payer and the receiver has to issue credit note as discount paid to the payer. My question is that whether we have to deposit the service tax on the entire bill amount or only the receipt amount. If on the receipt amount than where to show the difference in service tax billed and service tax  recovered in the return form.
