The Due date for Service Tax return (ST3) for the period Oct.-Mar.2014 on 25th April 2014.

As per ServiceTax rule -7, the penalty for the late filing return (beyond 30 days from due date) is 1000+ Rs. 100 per day from 31st day upto the date of filing and Subject to Max. Rs. 20000.

As per your data, the Approx amount - Rs.16200 is late filing fee,and you have to use GAR 7 for making the payment under the category for which you are providing the service. Refer the code list from ACES or EASIEST payment web site.
