Since 90 days have filed since the ST - 3 was filed, it is not possible to revise it. Now the assessee should pay the Service Tax along with the interest at prescribed rates till the date of payment. A letter explaining the lapse along with the paid challans should be submitted to the Range Superintendent of Service Tax. In the ST - 3 for the second half year, the payment of earlier taxes should be shown in the relevant columns as arrears paid. This would absolve assessee of any blame of suppression / evasion.

In case of individuals the service tax is payable quarterly on the 6th of the month following the quarter. Since less than 180 days have elapsed since 6th October 2015, the calculation of interest payable is as under (assuming the tax will be paid on 5th March 2016) :
For the second quarter July to September 2015 = Service Tax Payable x 18%/365 x 151
For the third quarter October to December 2015 = Service Tax Payable x 18%/365 x 59
The Service tax due for the months of January and February 2016 is payable along with the tax due in March 2016 on 31st March 2016. Hence there is no interest payable.
In case the assessee is a partnership firm / body corporate / others then the tax is payable monthly on the 6th of the subsequent month. In that case the number of days for interest payable will increase.
For the month of July 2015 there will be two rates applicable : 18% for 182 days & 24% for 30 days (total 212 days).
From August 2015 onwards the number of days is as under and the rate of interest is 18%:
August 2015 181 days
September 2015 151 Days
October 2015 120 days
November 2015 90 days
December 2015 59 days
January 2016 28 days
February 2016 no interest
