27 November 2009 As per rule 7 C of the service Tax Rules,1994 belated filing of ST-3 return attracts late filing fee as rightly said by the S.T.Inspector. However, that fee can be waived or reduced as per a provisio to the said rule which is reproduced below for your information.

[ Provided also that where the gross amount of service tax payable is nil, the Central Excise officer may, on being satisfied that there is sufficient reason for not filing the return, reduce or waive the penalty.]
