Filling of service tax return

This query is : Resolved

29 April 2013 My Company has taken registration in March 2013 as a service recipient under Reverse Tax Mechanism. The Company deposited the dues towards sevice tax as well as interest payable there on for the period July'2012 to March'2013, on 30.03.2013.

My queries are:
1. Is it required to file ST3 for the period July'2012 to Sept'2012?

2. If yes, is it so even if there are no dues for the period July'2012 to Sept'2012.

3. As the company got registered during March'2013 and deposited the dues in March'2013, if it plans to file ST3 before 31st August 2013 (i.e., the due date for filling ST3 for Oct'12 to March'2013)will it be wrong?

Please advice.

02 May 2013 I did not get any answer from the experts sofar to my prefered questions as yet.
However, what I did I uploaded the xml-return file on 30.04.2013. Today i.e., on 02.05.2013 when I checked the status of my uploaded file, I found that the uploaded file was rejected for the reasons below:
"The assessee is not allowed to file return for the period before the date of registration".

Therefore, the answers to my questions are:

1. NO.
2. NOT NECESSARILY.
3. NOTHING WRONG.
The questions resolved.

12 June 2013 Since you have collected and paid the ST for the July to Sept, you are required to file ST return otherwise how the department will know whether you have correctly paid the ST and interest or not. For other quarter also you have to file the return where there is any tax-ability or not
