New form ST-3 to be available this month
VIDE order no. 3/2013-ST dated April, 23, 2013, the CBEC had extended the last date of e-filing of Service Tax Return (ST 3) for the period October, 2012 to March, 2013 from 25th April to 31st August, 2013. The circumstances of a special nature which warranted the above extension was mentioned as follows -
"The Form ST-3, for the period from 1st October 2012 to 31st March 2013, is expected to be available on ACES around 31st of July, 2013".
The Board had also informed on its aces website that the exact date of the availability will be announced later.
Since the month of July has risen on the horizon, DDT felt it prudent to remind the Board of its commitment to the Trade so that things are not left to the last minute as earlier.
