Service tax for seminar, conference, workshops etc

Dear Friends we are into commercial coaching and training and have registered for service tax for the same. Now we are planning to conduct a 1 day workshop / seminar /  and provide to give refreshments to participants, and for this we might charge some 500 - 1000 rs, so is this charge subject to service tax, if yes then will it be booked under commercial coaching and training head or convention service head, > ?

"Convention" means a formal meeting or assembly which is not open to the general public, and dose not include a meeting or assembly the

principal purpose of which is to provide any type of amusement, entertainment or recreation

 

"commercial coaching and training" means any training or coaching provided by a commercial training or coaching centre;

 

As per above definition and as per me i would consider the same as "Convention"

so do we need to modify our ST1 form and add CONVENTION as a head under which we are offering service because this seminar we might conduct once in a bluemoon then for other months do we need to file return as NIL NIL ..

;)
