13 October 2011 I have an old Service Tax Code(STC) Number. Now I want to surrender it.I have asked to some Service Tax officials. According to them, I have to first apply for Conversion of Old Service Tax Code(STC) Number into PAN based Number. Then I have to obtain User-ID & Password. Only after that I can surrender it online.
Please suggest me the correct process for surrender the Service Tax Number.
