07 February 2015 Since your Turnover exceeded 10 Lacs in Year 2013-14, therefore you have rightly ST for FY 2014-15 and you have to charge and deposit the same till end of FY but if the Turnover is less than 10 Lacs in FY 2014-15 then You can avail ST Exemption in the Year 2015-16 till you reach 10 Lacs. You have to file ST3 for second half year.

07 February 2015 As per Service Tax Rules, if in the previous year, your turnover was more than 10 lakhs, in the current year you are liable to charge and pay service tax from Re.1 itself. Which you are correctly charging and paying. You will have to continue to charge and pay service tax till March 2015 and file returns as well. From April 2015 onwards, you need not charge and pay Service Tax till your turnover crosses 10 lakhs since in the previous year (2014-15) your turnover did not cross the 10 lakh limit. You will file first half yearly return in October 2015 and avail exemption under rule 33/2012.

Hope this answers your question.

07 February 2015 For availing the exemption, the previous year turnover is considered and not the current year.
