The Service Tax assessees are required to file a half yearly return in Form ST-3 or ST-3a in triplicate to the Superintendent, Central Excise, dealing with Service Tax work. The return is to be filed within 25 days from the last day of the half-year it relates and should be accompanied by copies of all T.R.6 challans issued in the half year. Further, assessees filling the return for the first time should also furnish to the Department the list of all the accounts maintained by them, relating to the Service Tax.

If no services have been provided during a half-year and no Service Tax is payable then, the assessee may file a Nil Return within prescribed time limit.

The procedure for claiming refund for the amount due from the epartment is mentioned here in below:-

Submission of application in prescribed Form-R in triplicate to the jurisdictional Assistant Commissioner (Service Tax).

Application should be filed within the prescribed period i.e. before the expiry of six months from the relevant date as defined in Section 11B of the Central Excise Act, 1944.

Application shall be accompanied by documentary evidences to establish that the amount of Service Tax in relation to which such refund is being claimed has been paid by the assessee in excess and the incidence of such tax had not been passed on by the assessee to any other person.

Dear Bhavik,

If you want to file a refund claim for the unutilized inputs service tax paid on your input services then in that case a refund claim under Rule 5 of CENVAT Credit Rules 2004 have to be filed fullfiling all the requirments for the same. Ms Sumiti has given you the basic provision for refund. But yours is case which falls under Rule 5 and special procedure needs to be followed therein.

Yes you can file the returns for last 2 years with a fine of Rs 1000/- and Rs 100 perday to the maxuimum of Rs 2000/- from the last due date. You have to file 4 returns for two years with fine with each return.

For any clarifications you may contact me at 9811617186.

Regards

Jeevesh Mehta
