I want to know that if I do not deposit the service tax to the service tax department for the fY 2008-09 in FY 2008-09 (But the money is received in FY 2008-09) and in the FY 2010 I have deposited it to the department that we have to show this value in the
ST-3 return for the FY 2009-10.
Please note the difference between payment of service tax & filing the return of service tax. Service tax is paid on quarterly/monthly basis. If their is a delay in such payment interest is charged. Service tax return is filed half yearly, it means the amount paid in that half is mentioned in thereturn by enclosing TR-6 Challans as proofs.
In the case you mentioned seperate returns should be filed for Fy-2008-09 and Fy 2009-10
