16 May 2013 as u are dealing as a trader and not as a service provider, it is a sale, and service tax is not applicable.
also trading is under negative list of services hence no registration required under service tax.

though registration under sale tax (comm. tax) is required or not depends on in which state you are dealing and what the rules of state VAT law.
