Please help me. One of my friend is providing civil contractor services for last 10 years having Gross receipts of Rs.95 lakhs in last financial year but had not taken service tax number yet. Now he wants to tkae a service tax number, What is the procedure ? One of the Ca informed me that if you go for Service Tax Registration now, they will know through your Pan Card that TDS has been deducted for 95Lakhs in last financial year & they wiil impose Service Tax, Interest & Penalty.So. What to do now ?Whjat is the way to take Service TAx Number without paying Service TAx on last services provided because he is ready to pay tax regularly onwards.
