How to file service tax return

Common Errors in the ST-3 Return:

b)      Non-filing of return for few categories:  As per the provisions of Service Tax, assessees are required to file the Service Tax return for all the categories of Service Tax.  But some assessees who are providing multiple services would not file the ST-3 return for few of the Services due to reason that there were no transactions for the return period.

c)       Return filing in wrong category:  Some times, the assessees would file the return in by selecting wrong category of services.  Example, return for works contract filed under construction of complex service category.

The return would be completed when the assessee submits the saved data.

e)      Status of Return:  After submission of return in Offline mode, the return filed by the assessee may be filed or it may be rejected.  The assessee requires to check the status of ST-3 return after 8 to 10 hours of filing the return.  If return is rejected, the assessee requires to re-submit the return after considering the errors made. 

f)       Non disclosure of exemption / abatements in the ST-3 Return:  In the ST-3 return, the assessees require to disclose total value of service which also includes exemption / abated value of Services.  Later, the exempted / abated value of Services requires to disclose and the same would be considered before computing the Service Tax.  Some assessees would show only the net amount of Taxable Services in the ST-3 return which results in non disclosure of exemption / abated portion in the ST-3 return.   Showing the exempted value of Services in the ST-3 returns would help the assessee to prove that they are not suppress the facts to the department. 

g)      Difference in Closing balance of CENVAT Credit of previous ST-3 return to ST-3 return for the current period.

h)      Non disclosure of challan numbers in the ST-3 return.  Due to this, there is a risk of return being rejected and the department may write a letter to the assessee for clarification.

i)        Non disclosure of Exemption / Abatement Notification in the ST-3 returns.  Due to this, there is a risk of return being rejectd.
