Dear all,
Yesterday, I successfully uploaded Service tax return online through ACES. However, the same got rejected by the system due to some technical reasons (Msg: premise code does not match with Service tax registration details).
Today morning,when I logged in to check the status of return filed I noticed the rejection message and resubmitted the return after changing teh premise code as appearing in ST registration certificate. Later, the system accepted the return however, displayed the date of filing as October 26th.
Can you please let me know which date would be considered as the actual date of filing return - 25th or 26th - under Service tax laws as this could prove crucial to decide the course of action - eg., delay in filing the return, penalty provisions, possibility of revising the return, etc?
Thanks & regards,
C Rajesh Kumar
