18% p.a. simple interest for all assessees (other than small scale sector assessee).
.
15% p.a. simple interest for small scale sector assesses.
.
(Small scale sector means a service provider, whose value of taxable service provided in a financial year does not exceed 60 lakh rupees during any of the financial years covered by the notice or during the last preceding financial year, as the case may be.)
.
Interest is payable for the period from the first day after the due date till the date of payment of any defaulted service tax amount (i.e. calculation should be made on day basis).
For example:
.
Due date of Payment = 05.01.2012, Actual Date of Payment = 30.03.2012
.
No of days of delay (26+29+30) = 85
.
Amount of service tax = Rs. 10,000/-
.
Calculation of interest = 10,000 X 85/366 X 18/100
.
Amount of interest payable = Rs. 418/-
