20 July 2025 Hey! To answer your question about voluntary registration under Service Tax (as per rules before GST came into effect):

If your gross receipts (turnover) do not exceed Rs. 9 lakhs, you are not mandatorily required to register for Service Tax.
However, you can opt for voluntary registration even if turnover is below Rs. 9 lakhs.
This means you can get registered voluntarily.
But keep in mind, once registered, you will have to comply with all Service Tax rules, including:
Filing periodic returns
Paying Service Tax on taxable services
Maintaining records as required
So, voluntary registration is allowed, but it also means taking on compliance responsibilities.
