ST02:

Received Service tax from Customer : 0 on x amount (OUPUT)

Now it's not require to make payment to government behalf of ST02

A entity may have two ST Registration No. for different premisis having independent billing or if the entity has not opted for centralized registration. Even in Central Excise, an assessee may have multiple registration numbers for different factories/units.

In my view, each registration no. is treated as seperate assessee and the Cenvat Credit of one unit can not be utilized against tax liability of another unit in service tax law. If someone can provide the relevant provisions/case laws, that it would be very nice.
