here joint reverse charge mechanisam also apply if your gross receipt is more then 15 lakhs but restrict to 10 laksh (50 % of 15 lakhs) if once you cross 9 lakhs receipt then you have must to registered under service tax but restrict to 10 lakh then you take benefit of notification no. 33/2012 which is less the 10 lakhs so you have no any liability to pay service tax
