25 July 2025 Gotcha! Here’s the scoop on your questions about late filing and reverse charge:

---

### 1. **Can you still file Service Tax Return for Apr-Sep 2013 now?**

* **Yes, you can file a belated (late) return** for that period.
* The portal (ACES) allows submission of returns after due date but before any show-cause notice or penalty is imposed.
* Late filing may attract **interest and/or penalty** depending on how late it is.

---

### 2. **Regarding Rent-a-Cab service return submission:**

* You can file returns for Rent-a-Cab under the relevant service code on ACES portal, same as other services.
* If the service tax is payable under reverse charge, you need to report the tax payable as service receiver.

---

### 3. **About Service Tax and Interest/Penalty under Reverse Charge:**

* Under **reverse charge**, the service recipient is liable to pay service tax.
* If tax wasn’t paid on time, **interest is applicable** on the delayed payment amount.
* Penalty may also be imposed if delay is significant or non-compliance continues.
* So even if tax wasn’t originally paid, you need to pay interest and possibly penalty for the delay.

---

### Quick advice:

* File the belated return ASAP to minimize penalty risks.
* Calculate and pay the due service tax along with interest immediately.
* Keep proof of payment and filing for future reference.
