Is the basic exemption limit of Rs 10.00 lakhs applicable each year? ( like IT) Or liability to service tax arises as soon as limit of 10.00 lakhs is exceeded in each year ? Suppose an assessee has 5 lakhs,7lakhs,10 lakhs as billed services during last 3 yrs how the service tax provisions would apply
However, you should register with the service tax commissioniate if there is an assumption that the services rendered by one for a particular year is going to cross 10 lakhs.
As far as i remember , you should do so within 10 days as the amount of services rendered crosses 10 lakhs.
