Dear Experts,

Excel utility to file Service Tax Return is not available for July, 12 to Sep, 12 at Service Tax Site.

Please tell me when it will be available or how can we file ST Return for 2nd Quarter. Also tell me what's the last date of filing return.

I m not able to get one prop. firm registered in Service tax. actually i want to know whether the registration would be in prop own name or on his firm name. many times i have tried to register on firm name & i put the prop name in the field of "name of prop". then finally when i go for final submission it shows the massage "there can not be more then one proprietor".

can some one suggest its very urgent please.

I had filled ST-3 in excel for Ap-June 2012 qtr., converted it into XML and then uploaded it on aces.gov.in. Whenever I upload it, it gets rejected on viewing XML status.It shows-Return has been rejected for the following errors :
If no abatement notification no./sl.no is selected ,then Abatement amount claimed should be zero.
I am showing around Rs. 4.5 taxable gross receipts and then I am claiming exemption upto Rs. 10 lakh i.e. 6/2005. I have selected NN 6/2005. Still, error comes on uploading.

I am filing ST-3 for the first time.Please give reply ASAP. Already it is much delayed.
