I own a website and have registered for Service Tax for possible revenue from online advertisements. My yearly income is not going to cross Rs.10L for sure. I have some basic questions: 1.When I bill/invoice my clients, should I add Service Tax ? 2. Should I specify ST regn. number in invoice? 3. Is it necessary that I sign the invoice? I will be emailing the invoice from my business email account. (If I have to sign, I have to scan and attach image.)
Please clarify. Your advice/suggestion is much appreciated. Thanks in Advance.

Dear ecity, If you get register voluntarity before crossing Rs.9lac limit, all provisions of service tax will apply to you and you have to bill accordingly and if you does not want to register as your receipt will be less than Rs.9 lac, you SHOULD NOT collect Service tax in your invoice and no need to write ST Regn no. also.
