Vivek, based on my understanding of your query: Being a proprietor you need to deposit the Service Tax quarterly. So the last date to deposit the ST was 31.03.2011 (Being in the month of March) You should use ST-3 for filing your ST return Since ST return are filed Half Yearly so, for the period Oct'10-Mar'10 the last date was 25th March 2011. Since you have delayed the return. Still you can deposit the same within 15 days by just paying Rs.500
