Dear Mr. Ashwin,

you have submitted the application online 29th october 2014.

Please submit all necessary documents to service tax department within 15 days . So that, the dept. would issue the registration certificate in form ST - 2.

There is no reason that the dept. could deny from issuing registration certificate. Provided, you have submitted all the necessary documents.

Partnership deed

Ack of Form A1 submitted online

Further, you can continue charge service tax and avail the input servie credit as well.

Sir, you should charge service tax only after crossing taxable value of Rs. 10 Lacs.

It is not necessary that service tax can be charged after crossing threshold limit of 10 lakh only. There is threshold limit of Rs.10 lakh under Notification 6/2005-ST (as amended) and since 01.07.2012 Notif. 33/2012-ST (not applicable in case other's Brand/Reverse Charge mechanism). As per Para 2(1) of Notification, it is not compulsory and required to be opted, however if excercised can not be withdrawn during remining part of financial year.
