    This is a problem I have noticed several times and not been able to find the root cause. :oops:
    The diffrence comes due to the TDS amount.

    Hi All,

    The reason for the difference in the service tax amount is becuase of the calculation, i.e. at the time of invoice, the service tax is being calculated on the invoice amount and then TDS is deducted, whereas during the payment, the TDS is deducted first and then service tax is calculated.

    As per the Indian Statutory requirement, the payment calculation is correct but unforunately all the companies follow the invoice calculation, which according to me is incorrect.

    Calculation for your reference purpose:

    Invoice
    Invoice Amount - 25,000
    Service Tax (10.3%) -2575
    TDS (2.06%) on 27,575 - 568.05
    Total Amount - 27007

    Payment
    Invoice AMount - 25,000
    TDS (2.06%) on 25,000 - 515
    Service Tax on 24485 - 2521.96
