Our Client has not filed service tax return of FY 2006-07,2007-08,2008-09,2009-10 (4 Yrs) so now they want to file all returns ......plz suggest me whether we have to file it manually or online..and in case online should we file in current ST-3 or not??????????
In my view, now you have to file all the returns through aces, manual filing may not be possible. You can download the appropriate module from aces.gov.in and upload the files.
As far as my knowledge, rate of interest from 10.09.2004 is 13%. Declaration under VCES can only be filed if there is "tax dues". In your case, if you have paid the service tax and not filed the returns, then VCES facility is not available. However, if there is "tax dues" VCES declaration can be filed for the period Oct-2007 to Dec-12.
