NO WAIVED ANY PENALTY & INTEREST 

AS I FILED SERVICE TAX RETURN FOR Q1 (APRIL-JUNE) 2017

I FILED WITH INTEREST & PENALTY FLAT RS 20,000

ADVICE TO FILE WITH PENALTY 

In Case my tax liablity is below Rs. 20000 then what is its implications
Waiver of Penalty No Waiver – Penalty could be dropped on grounds of reasonable cause u/s 80. Complete waiver if service tax + Interest is paid within 30 days of date of service of notice. Waiver of 85%, if Service Tax + Interest + 15% Penalty is deposited within 30 days of service of notice.
Relaxation in Penalty after the order. No relaxation 75% penalty is waived if Service Tax + Interest is paid within 30 days of the order. 75% penalty is waived if Service Tax + Interest + 25% Penalty is paid within 30 days of the order.

there is no such provision as you said 

i received a notice on 20 th of may.
So, now can we file a return along with interest..
or pay a penalty as as per your explanation given above says if we pay a service tax and interest within 30 days there may be possiblity of waiver

yes 

Thanx. Can you send me a link where this explanation is written.
