We are a company and Already registered under GTA service under reverse charge mechanism. Now under new reverse charge mechanism,we have to pay tax on Manpower and Work contract services. Do we require fresh registration for that?

I think you have to amend service tax registration certificate to get endorsement fromconcerned officer for new services. Please read below lines from service tax procedures:
In case a registered assessee starts providing any new service from the same premises, he need not apply for a fresh registration. He can simply fill in the Form S.T.1 for necessary amendments he desires to make in his existing information. The new form may be submitted to the jurisdictional Superintendent for necessary endorsement of the new service category in his Registration certificate.

But I am not 100% sure if u require after introduction of negative list because when you do service tax registration, it only has option of service other than in negative list i.e. it is a complete change from earlier approach that was under positive list of services. But any way I suggest you should get the necessary endorsement.
