Agent has to deposit service tax. Late payment of tax attracts interest @ 13% per annum to be calculated for the number of days delay. Delay in filing 1/2 yearly returns in form ST-3 attracts rule 7C of the Service Tax Rules,1994 by which late filing fee has to be paid ranging from500/- to2000/- depending on the period of delay. However both the rate of interest and late filing fee has been substantially increased in the proposed budget, which may be taken care of.
