One of my client is providing three types of services. suppose A,B,C. Now individually value of services provided does not exceed basic exemption limit. But on aggregate basis the value of services exceeds basic exemption limit. So my question is whether he has to take service tax registration or not? Also I want to know if the once the basic exemption limit for service tax exceeds whether service tax will be levied on the value of the services begining from Rs. 1 or from the basic exemption limit? Thanks

service tax registration no. should be taken. because exemption limit is on the basis of assessee not on services. if service tax exemption limit exceeds for the first time than service tax should be charged on the amount when it exceeds the exemption limit. In next year, service tax will be charged from Rs. 1/-
