Hi
It is better to file half retuns, to avoid litigation expenses.
However it is not mandate in view of Circular No. 97 / 8 /2007 dated.23rd August, 2007 para 6.1, it is very clear that service tax returns are not required to be filed if the Persons who are not liable to pay service tax (because of an exemption including turnover based exemption),
There are few cases which are supporting to this argument.
