07 October 2008 I am running a propriotary firm involved in engineering activities. Thinking that I will cross 10 lac exemption limit, I have charged service tax to client so far. Now itseems that I will not cross the 10 lac limit. My question is

1. Do I have to deposit the service tax component to the govt in future?

2. Can I claim refund of the service tax deposited at the end of financial year if I prove that I have not crossed the 10 lac limit

3. This is my first year of operation. Do I have to pay service tax for entire amount? In forum I have read cotrasting opinion about this. Can enybody give refrence to the service tax rules regarding this matter

Regards,
Yogesh
