st return filling every 6 months for 1st half last date is 25 oct and for 2nd half 25th april

once you registered you have to file return compulsory

1. You need to register only when the taxable service exceeds Rs.9 lacs in a year. Till then, it is not compulsory to register
2. So I suggest that you wait till then and register as otherwise you will have to unnecessarily file nil returns
3. However, you can register online: https://www.aces.gov.in/STASE/switch.do?prefix=/ui/jsp/common&page=/loginpage.do
