Please mention whether you will start a propritorship concern/partnership concern/company as the requirements differ accordingly.

Anyhow if assume that you are going do it on your own (a proprietorship concern) you will require a PAN No. from Income Tax Department in your own name and Service Tax Registration No.

Thank you for your reply sir... yes i m planning to start a propreitorship firm. if the income from this service islessthan 15lacs, then also service tax is registration is mandatory.?

Service tax registration is not mandatory if you are below the specified limit provided by Service Tax Act. But you must be sure not to cross the threshold limit. Further if you have obtained registration you will have to file NIL retrun with the service tax department if your receipts are less than the specified limit.
