How to file nil svc tax return for sole proprietor

In case of Service providers registered with the department ,ST - 3 (return of Service tax) has to be filed on Half yearly basis. Periods being April to September and October to March. Due date of filing of return is 25th day of the month falling next to the end of each half year.

If you are already registered with the department, you need to file returns. In other cases, you are mandatorily required to get registered only on creossing the threshold limit of Rs 9 lakhs. Only when you are registered with Department return is to be filed.

Dear,

You are not required to file the service tax return as you get registed in oct month 2011 and now you are required to file the retun after half year ending 31 march 2012 with the due 25 april 2012.

Also, now service tax retun are to be filled electronicaly (on line).

Thanks & Regards

The service tax return has to be filed when RC is taken and the return has to be submitted twice in a year.  April to sep in oct 25; oct to march in april 25.  But payment is to be made thro online every month immediately after raising the bills whether payment received or not., The point of taxation rule has come into effect.
