Any agency or institution collecting service tax from its customers are mandated to have Service Tax Accounting Codes. These codes have to be quoted in the Service Tax Payment Challan (GAR 7). If you provide various taxable services, amount accrued for each service has to be mentioned alongside the corresponding accounting code in the GAR 7 Challan. These accounting codes help the government keep track of your services and payments.
