i applied for s.tax registration online bt by mistake i selected wrong commissionerate division. bt i realised the same when i go to dept for filing documents physically bt then officer advised me to apply once again by selecting correct division code. i did the same and choose another log in id. then i take printout of online application filed and go to dept. they accept d application and gave back copy of dt printed application affixing their seal on it. then assuming that we have been allotted service tax no. as there were no communication from department we deposited our service tax on the same number. bt whn today for verification i entered the service tax no. on simpletaxindia.org 's site it shows dt no records available for this no. actually service tax no. allotted while online application is aaffh6357qsd002. bt no records available for this no. then i randomly tried aaffh6357qst001 and surprising that no is active on our name. advise me what to do now? we have not so far got the servicetax registration certificate from department. on what no. next quarters' tax should be deposited?
also tell me how to sign in on aces site because the id which we created is now no longer exist and when i tries to sign in by using that id msg appears that the registration is either rejected or surrendered.

I have a courier company in USA, lets call it "ABC". We have customers in the USA who ship goods to India. We have a Private limited firm in India that has takes up the job of customs clearance and last leg delivery. Lets Call it XYZ.

ABC collects all charges including customs duty from its customers in USA.

XYZ bills ABC for the customs duty paid in USD (INR amount paid to goverment is converted to USD at current market rate). Is any tax applicable on customs duty collected ?

XYZ bills ABC for customs clearance charges in USD. The customs clearance is done by a local company in India who bills XYZ with a service tax component in its invoice in INR. Does XYZ have to again pay service tax on amount collected by it from ABC in USD ?

XYZ bills ABC for last leg delivery in USD. The last leg is taken care of by top companies in India who bill XYZ with a service tax component in their invoice. Does XYZ again have to pay service tax on the ammount collected by it from ABC in USD ?

If XYZ offers the same service to a local company in India , Then does it have to pay service tax ?


This is so confusing , I have not received a satisfying answer from any expert that i have spoken, I hope to get some attention here.

thank you all in advance.
