What is ST-1? - Application for Service tax Registration?

Form ST-1 is the application form through which service tax registration is applied in India.  The form can be filed online through aces.gov.in. The following points should be taken care off while filing the form ST-1:

1. You should keep your personal documents with yourself while filling the form ST-1 to avoid any mismatch of information. Any discrepancy found in the documents and information, may invite cancellation of service tax registration (ST-2).
    
2. No documents are uploaded on the online portal of aces.gov.in.
    
3. After submitting the form ST-1, the same should be printed and signed by the appropriate person and should be sent to jurisdictional officer along with necessary documents.
    
4. ST-1 can be filed without PAN card as well, but service tax registration (ST-2) will not be granted until PAN is allotted. This is due to the fact that service tax registration number is the extension of PAN number only.

Form ST-1 is annexed hereto for your Reference purpose only. To further know about the St-2, kindly go through the service tax registration process.
