Dear All,

I have on query please help me urgently with proper reference of circular or sections. 

"We are a company and in our case If we are paying advance payment to the transporter(GTA) than at that time of advance payment whether we have to deposit the service tax by 5th of the next month proportionately to the Gov. on that advance payment or we will pay service tax on behalf of the GTA later on after settlement of his bill".
