okay but issue of invoice will be under rule 3 of point of taxation or like a Note in Rule 3 and it does not affect the Rule 4A as conditions for issuing the invoice are completion of service of receipt of payment whichever is earlier

ST to be paid at the time of Invoice or advance WIL. If you raised the invoice before completion of service, it is deemed that service has been completed and ST liability would be attracted.
