01 August 2016 Service tax provides for an exemption to small service providers who provide taxable services of a value not exceeding the specified limit. The specified limit is now ` 10 lakhs. In other words where the value of taxable services provided do not exceed ` 10 lakhs in the previous financial year, the concerned service provider would not be required to pay service tax upto receipts of ` 10 lakhs in the current financial year. The exemption is through notification 6/2005 ST dated 01.03.05 as amended from time to time

* NIL RETURN TO BE FILED IF YOU HAD REGISTERED WITH SERVICE TAX.
