we have filed service tax return for the period 1-4-2008 to 30-09-2008.... but on scruitny on march 2009 we have found that service tax collected was shown in the return Rs. 68916 instead of Rs. 127000 and same was not paid. now time of revised return has been passed.
Is there any way to file a revise return or any other way to rectify the mistake.

Dear Harsh, Service Tax doesn't contain any provision of revising the return, therefore you. For your information in case of refund Assessee should file application Form-R, and in case of short payment it is suggested to make payment of ST alongwith interest and inform adjuciating authority u/s 73(2A) which will help you in not receiving show cause notice.
But as per my experince with department in case of human error department is accepting revised return and their is no time limit.
