ST payment liability in your cases arises when the payment is received. As u said the payment will be received in April 2010 then the ST liability shall arise in that month only & the due date shall be 5th July 2010 if the assessee is individual, HUF.or partnership. Howver if the assessee is other then the aforementioned, then the due date of payment is 5th May 2010. Refer table given below:
