25 July 2025 Hey! I don’t have direct files to share here, but I can definitely help you with a **sample format** and **dummy data** for Service Tax and Excise returns, which you can easily create in Excel for practice.

### Sample format for **Service Tax Return (ST-3)** - simplified version

| Sr No | Description | Amount (Rs.) |
| ----- | ------------------------------ | -------------------- |
| 1 | Gross value of taxable service | 1,000,000 |
| 2 | Abatement if any (%) | 60% |
| 3 | Taxable value (40% of gross) | 400,000 |
| 4 | Service Tax rate (%) | 14% (including cess) |
| 5 | Service Tax payable | 56,000 |
| 6 | Service Tax paid | 56,000 |
| 7 | Interest (if any) | 0 |
| 8 | Penalty (if any) | 0 |

You can prepare columns for different service heads and sections (Part A, B, C, D) similarly.

### Sample format for **Excise Return (ER-1)** - simplified

If you want, I can also create a **sample Excel template with dummy data** and share the formulas for calculation. Just let me know! Would you prefer a detailed or simple version?
