Dear Sirs

We are a security agency & now we have to raise bills to our clients. I have query that at which rate we have to raise the bills?

Means we have to raise by 12% + Edu cess or 3 % + cess ?

Earlier I had got 2 answers regarding the same , one was saying with 12% & another one was saying with 3%. Hence, I am confused.

Please help us.

Dear Sir,


If any person forget to consider any service in ST-3 on which he take service tax and also not pay service tax in gov. account on it. Then how is he take this service into ST 3. Because 90 day of filling revise return also lapses???

Hello everyone,

i filed ST-3 returns of my client for the period apr to june 12 but the same was rejected due to incorrect premises code.

i made the correction in the form and generated corret xms file and then tried to upload but i was unsucccessful since message appeared that return was already filed.

I tried again to upload by selecting the "revise" option then also it was not accepted and message was shown that original return not filed/90 days expired.

i checked the "view st3" but there is no record. i checked the xms status and there i found the error in premises code.

Urgently waiting for your reply.

Sir
