08 March 2012 Yes, you are required to registered.

2. Under Manpower services

3. no abatement.

4. Required to pay service tax on PF/ESI. However, if the same has some direct relation with the services rendered to the client and is hence specifically billed to the client and is reimbursable by the client on an actual basis then there is no need to pay service tax on PF/ESI.
