Thanks Shailesh. But I have already registered under service tax, Is there mandatory on me to charge service tax whether receipt during the year is below exemption limit.
One can wait towards Registration of Service Tax uptill its turnover does not reaches Rs. 9 Lacs and should charge Service tax for turnover above Rs. 10 Lacs provided your turnover for last F.Y. was also below threshold limit. But , Since you have already got service tax registration no. you must charge service tax even your turnover is below threshold limit . Also you can avail input credit for services received.

If in current year receipt of Rs. 9Lac than there is mandatory for charging the Service tax. (I have already taken service tax registration no.)
