maintain a consolidated centralized service tax registration at head office, and include all addresses in that, it will cover all your queries. 

I am agree with U.S. sharma view on centralised registration.

But please ensure that for your Query no. 3. - It will be applicable only "service provide by Individual, HUF, Firm & APO only.

Query4-If service provider is registered under category of Security servises " then reverse charge mechanism will be not applicable.
