Yes, you need to ammend your Service Tax Registration & include the service of Rent a cab. Go to this link for the circular no - /experts/service-tax-reverse-charge-1160099.asp#.UPL2KW9tghE

Yes you need to amend your registration to include hiring or renting of motor vehicles.

No departmental clarification is there on this isse as the codes were restored for statiscal purpose, but you have get ST2 amended.

I agree with Parmita Mazumdar.The department has restored the accounting codes for services as they can track the tax collections from various services.

Recently i had applied for service tax registration and i had selected  "services other than services in the negative list"  as category of service.Two days back i have received a mail from department asking me to amend my ST-02.

So we have to obtain registration for all the services that we intend to provide.
