Dear Sir,

I have a proprietorship firm and i want to get it registered under service tax.
I just want to know that whether Firm's current account cancelled cheque is mandatory or proprietor's saving accounts cancelled cheque or passbook photocopy can be sufficient for getting registration under service tax these days.

Thanks in advance
