As per rule 7 of pot rules, the date of payment in RCM cases is the point of taxation.if payment in July, pot is not in June. Pot is the deemed date of provision of service. As per transition rules, also refer tweet FAQ, gst is payable.

TIME OF SUPPLY IN CASE OF REVERSE CHARGE MECHANISM;

the “ Time of supply” will be

1. Date of receipt of service, or

2. Date, when payment is made, or

3. Date of receipt of invoice from supplier, whichever is earlier

In case when services are performed over period of time against only one payment for all service as a whole, then the time of supply of service will be time of supply, when all services has been provided.

Querist may decide accordingly.

Service completed before 30.6.17. Date of invoice before 30.6.17. Only payment received during July, 17. GST Acts/Rules cannot be made applicable retrospectively. ST is applicable. If the department forces to GST for completion of service before 30.6.17, deposit GST under protest and fight the case/issue legally.
