23 August 2012 Dear Sir,
One of my client is appling for a work contract whose cost is around 8 lacs and this would be his first contract. Howerve his contractee is asking him for servise tax number. I have following queries.

1. Whether my client can apply for service tax registration as his turnover is below 9 lacs.

2. Whether he has to charge service tax on the contract amount of 8 lacs after his registration.

3. While filing St-3, if he shows his payment 8 lacs and keep the the tax column nil then under which section/notification he should claim his exemption in that return.
Please advise me.
