If suppose we create one invoice against service provided in Feb 2017. For the same service tax also we paid but if customer raise request to change date on same invoice due to there internal reason for the month of June. Now is it allowed? Already service tax paid so if we change date it means we need to pay service tax again if we change invoice date?
Pls clarify how to handle such case?
