Once we file service tax return online, is it necessary to file the acknowledgement before the Superintendent manually?

I have submitted Form ST-1 to the service tax department on 11.5.2011,and have received ST-2 by email on 13.5.2011 which is not stamped & signed.. I want to know,by what tym i wud get dat in physical form??

If a company is registered already and collected tax & filed returns under the act for the past 5 years even when the total services provided does not exceed the limit of Rs. 10 lakhs every year.
Can they claim an exemption during the year as turnover does not exceed the limit of Rs.10 lakhs??

Service tax on 5 invoices paid twice in the month of Feb-09 & Mar-09. The amount is around 98 lakhs. In the ST3 also this wrong payment is shown, that is 5 invoices are shown twice as revenue.

Please give your valuable opinion on this issue, how to take back the excess paid.

Thanks in advance

sir if an assessee has not filed the return for the financial year 09-10& 10-11 whether the assessee is liable to pay penalty of Rs.20000 each half year or Rs.1000+100 per day beyond 30 days till the last date of filing subject to maximum Rs.20,000.. beacause it is effected from 1.04.2011.

if we took another view ie. return file beyond 30 days from the prescribe date which is 25/04/2010 then he is undoubtedly liable to Rs 20,000 as penalty.
now my question is whether penalty will be 2000 for the fin.year 09-10 or Rs.20,000
Kindly suggest me in this regard.
thanks

As per Finance Act service tax is to be deposited at the time of actual receipt of invoice value.
If we discounted these bills from our bankers or sold to a factor. When should we deposit service tax?
At the time of bill discounting/Factoring or when actual payment remitted by the customer/debtor to bank.

Dear Friends

I am working in Coastal Local Area Bank Ltd., Vijayawada. By oversight we have not claimed the 'Cenvat Credit' pertaining to BSNL Leased Lines charges for FY 2009-10 and FY2010-11. The amount of Service Tax paid on BSNL Leased Lines works out to Rs.70000/- per year.

So, kindly let us know whether the same can be claimed in this financial year. Kindly help us in the matter.

My query is pertaining to transaction between the companies going to be merged and service tax implication on the same. Suppose A is going to be merged with B w.e.f. April 01, 2011 however the order of High court comes on say July 16, 2011. In this can company A & B take a stand that service provided between April 01, 2011 to July 15, 2011 is service to oneself and service tax is not payable on the same?
