Hello Experts,
I am an Engineer by profession. I had applied for a service tax registration in october 2010 for my newly launched firm through a taxation advocate. But there was an minor error in address, so i asked the advocate to rectify this. He told me that time that we need to cancel the previous application or ST-1 form and make a fresh application. So, a new registration was applied for and i got a new St-1 form with correct address and details with a new registration number. Then after a month or so, i asked my advocate for st-2 form certificate, and he gave me a ST-2 form within 2-3 days but with a registration number we had previously applied for, not the registration number we had applied on second time. I asked my advocate why deptt. has issued st-2 with previous registration number as it also bears an error in address. But he is insisting that it has been updated by the deptt. and i need not worry. But my concern is that i had billed my clients on the registration number beared on my second time application or st-1 form. Please help me on how to get the St-2 form on second time application and surrender the first st-2 form.
Your timely response will be highly appreciable.

Er. Sumit
