Sir,
In first year, service provider has more than Rs. 10 lak turnover. He gets service tax number and pays service tax on above Rs.10 lak turnover.
In the next year his turnover remains 5 lak.
Again in the third year, his turnover remains 5 lak and he does not hope to have more turnover.
What should he do ?
1. In second year is he supposed to pay service tax?
2. In the third year also is he supposed to pay service tax?
3. Suppose he surrenders his service tax number in the second or in third year, can he get again service tax number when his turnover exceeds taxable limit ? Can he again get threshold limit exemption ?

Thanks

Ours is a Pvt Ltd Co. We had taken office premises on rent. We had stopped payment of Service Tax on Office Rent wef 01.05.2009. Now the landlord has sent letter asking for the Service Tax on Rent @ 10.3% on rent from May,2009, stating that Govt has placed an ammendment in Parliament which further go on to state that no further suit/action would lie in any court in respect of this levy.

Whether we are liable to pay Service Tax to the landlord on the basis of this ammendment in Parliament or shall Delhi High Court judgement striking down the Service Tax on Rent still hold good ?
