for the f.y 2012-13 you should charge s.tax only once you cross Rs. 10 lac of taxable services on the value of subsequent billings.
this is in light of fact that you mentioned that ur turnover for f.y 2011-12 is less then 10 lac assuming the only 1 service you are providing which you have mentioned.
So no need to charge on 5 lac as mentioned above
