Service tax or penlty is the liability of the trader.

For lack of service on your part, your client would have to prove in the consumer forum, if he likes to file a case against you.

You acted on behalf of your client as and when he supplied information, since u have received information by Currier, being gentle professional u may prove information received late. In this matter u don't have fault, it is your client's baby he must face consequences
