15 March 2013 Dear Sir,
I had applied for service tax on 10-03-2013 and submitted the hard copy of st-1 with the copy of PAN Card and Voter Card.
Next day a cleark from the Range Office called on phone and said me to print ST-2 from Website. I did the same and the went to Range Office for its stamping and signature by Supretendent. But they asked me to submit an affidavit that I have not doing any work taxable under service tax before applying registration.

Whether their demand is genuine or not?

Please advise me.

A print of the form submitted online shall be taken and along the documents as specified, shall be submitted to the department at the concerned commissionerate.
