Service tax invoice issuance: invoices valid only after registration, pre-registration tax collections are not authorised.
A service tax invoice may be issued only after the taxpayer's date of registration; issuance before registration is not authorised and pre-registration collections are not permissible, so registration prior to charging or invoicing service tax is required for lawful collection. (AI Summary)
