If reverse charge applicable in any case let say in case of Legal services, is it mandatory for service provider (i.e. lawyer) to get himself registered under service tax?

I am a Service Receiver (Mr A - Inidividual) and i am paying freight charges on transport of goods to Service Provider (GTA - both Company & Individual). My query is would i be elegible for payment of Service Tax under Reverse Charge Mechanism ?
if Yes, from what date should i pay service tax as i have started my business from 2005

is branch office have separate service tax registration code / number? pls giv me full details regarding that.....

Sir
If any Architect services and services for structure design are received for construction of residential complex then,whether these services are available for input service for utilization of input credit .Abatment of 70%/75% are availed.please advise

Friends,
In service tax registration below 4 conditions are satisfied or any one satisfied for registration.

1)service provider during the previous year exceeds ` 9 lakhs
2)service provider is acting as an input service distributor irrespective of his turnover.
3)Service provider provided services under the brand name of another person.
4)the service receiver is liable to pay service tax being recipient of service under Reverse Charge

In reverse charge or brand name of another person exemption limit 10,00,000 is allowed or not.
for example service 12,00,000
taxable service is 12,00,000-10,00,000=2,00,000
this is correct or wrong please clarify it.

Dear Experts

I am pursuing my CA course undergoing my Articleship tenure currently.

I would be grateful if you can resolve my query regarding the following issue in Service Tax.

As per Rule 6 of Service tax Rule, 1994 (Payment of Service tax), “in case of individuals and partnership firms whose aggregate value of taxable services provided from one or more premises is fifty lakh rupees or less in the previous financial year, the service provider shall have the option to pay tax on taxable services [provided or agreed to be provided] by him up to a total of rupees fifty lakhs in the current financial year, by the dates specified in this sub-rule with respect to the month or quarter, as the case may be, in which payment is received.”

My doubt is regarding how to calculate the value of taxable services provided during a year. For eg:- let’s assume that a CA firm is maintaining books as per Cash basis. In the Previous year the total receipts for audit services rendered is, say, Rs 40L . In the current year the total receipts is, say Rs 46L. Now out of this 46L , an amount of Rs 10L pertains to Previous year and also RS 15L is yet to be received for audit services rendered. Now My total Taxable service for the Current year is Rs 46L or RS 51L?? (46-10+15=51). Also my Value of taxable service for last year is Rs 40L or RS 50L?? (40+10=50).

Thanks all in Advance
