17 March 2009 Can anyone help me out in a doubt relating to the above subject.

Q: Turnover for FY 2007- 08 - 700000
Total receipts in 07-08
(a)in respect of bills raised
in 07-08 - 650000
(b)advance received in respect
of service to be rendered in
Fy 08-09 - 400000
--------
Total receipts - 1050000
--------
The business was commenced on 31st Jan, 2007.
My queries are:
(i)Can i claim general exemption upto Rs. 800000 receipts, given to small service providers as my turover in 07-08 is less than Rs.800000?

(ii)Should I pay service tax on receipts exceeding Rs 800000 i.e on Rs.250000 which constitutes my advance receipts?

(iii)As my turnover is less than Rs.800000 in 07-08 can i get general exemption of Rs.1000000 in FY 08-09?

(iv)Finally what are the consequences if I am not registered in FY 07-08?

I would be grateful if any one provide me with the answers for the above queries as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance

Regards,
