Yes, mandatory to file form ST-3.
02 May 2016
But the turnover is Nil during this period.. Is then it is mandatory as there are circulars which suggests Nil service tax returns need not be filed
02 May 2016
Then you may follow those circulars and need not file if you so wish.

You have to file ST-3 once service tax registered. Even it is nil.
03 May 2016
you have to file NIL return if you have no business transaction during the return period.

But is there any way to avoid late filing fees because there is zero turnover during the entire year.
05 May 2016
Yes, as per 3rd proviso to rule 7C of Service Tax Rules,1994, the Officer has power of waive/reduce the late filing fee in such cases wherein no service tax is payable.

Ok, should I file the return now without paying any late fee or wait till my client surrender his service tax number this year
