17 February 2015 Any person liable to pay service tax, who,-
(a) provides taxable service from more than one premises;
(b) receives taxable services in more than one premises; or
(c) has more than one premises engaged in relation to such taxable service,
may seek centralised registration, provided he does centralised billing or maintains centralised accounting in respect of such taxable services in a premises. In certain cases the centralization can be at the zonal/regional level. In such case, each of such offices is to be registered individually. Such registrations are to be granted by the jurisdictional Commissioner where such offices/establishments are located.

18 February 2015 Centralized registration
Centralised registration is opted for in a case where the accounting and billing operations of the assessee are centralized in an administrative office which may be a branch or Head Office despite the services being provided from more than one location. The premises that is registered here is the one where the centralized accounting and billing is done. This decision is at the option of the tax payer and he can also opt to have multiple registration which however may not be advisable. The procedure would be the same as explained above with a few exceptions -
The registration in case of centralized registration would be granted by the Commissioner of Central Excise having jurisdiction over the centralized premises.
The registration formality at the department’s end takes a little longer than the period stated above and the concept of deemed registration need not apply here.
The following documents are required in addition to the documents needed under the aforesaid procedure -
a) Proof of address of each such premises or branches for which centralized registration is sought
b) Proof of address of branches, new offices opened if any
c) In case of the Centralised Registration Annexures as per the Trade Notice no. 03/2011-12-ST dated 20/10/2011 are also required to be submitted.
Normally 15-20 days are required to issue the ST reg Certificate under the Centralised Reg, as compared to 1-2 days for single premised registration
