I agree with CA Ankit Bohra. New date will be from enactment in parliament. However for some service there should be additional Swachha Bharat Cess of 2% but yet it is not clear how the same would be calculated i.e. on value of service or on service tax payable. It will be on some specific service which is not decided, yet.

Wait for the enactment of Finance Bill, 2015 after which the government will issue a notification for the effective date of application of revised rate of 14%. Normally, the President gives his assent in the 1st week of May.
