Penalty for non filing of service tax return under 77

This query is : Resolved 

16 May 2013 we are in receipt of service tax notice prescribing for payment of penalty for non filing of return? my question is that
If value of service is below threshold limit then is it necessary to pay the service tax & file service tax return for the same year?
If penalty is imposed for the same reason the n is there any sufficient grounds or provisions to waive that penalty under service tax act?
Please guide me.

16 May 2013 even if your service value is below threshold limit you are required to file the return of NIL tax on due dates, (half yearly) IF YOU HAVE TAKEN THE REGISTRATION.

as the penalty is as per law, this can not become a sufficient reason.

17 May 2013 Yes, you have to file NIL Return. You cannot simply avoid the process.
