Dear Rajender Rana,
First of all see whether at the time of registration with Service Tax authority you have mentioned the name of proprietor with name of the firm.
Name of the Applicant: as Mr. ____, Proprietor of M/s._____.
If you doesn’t have the documents, then see your registration Certificate with Service Tax Authorities, there will be mentioned name of the proprietor with Name of the firm.
If u still doesn’t find anything enough for proving, then u may also show them the current accounts detail of the Bank, as it will be in the name of the firm, with authorised signatory as the Proprietor and take the Certificate from the bank in this regard

Hi,
According to us, budget 2012 states as under:
E. Service Tax Rules, 1994:
1. A common simplified registration format for Central Excise and Service Tax is being placed for public comments, together with further liberalization in registration requirements, particularly centralized registrations. The proposed changes are attached as Annexure C. 12
2. Likewise a new simplified one page common return with Central Excise: to be called Excise & Service Tax Return (EST for short) is being introduced. The format of the return is given as Annexure D. It is also being proposed that the cycles for the payment service tax and filing of return should coincide. To this end the tax payment requirement is proposed to be revised as follows:
A. Assessees who paid tax of Rs 25 lakh or more in previous year and new assessees other than individuals and firms: Monthly
B. Others: Quarterly
3. This will improve cash flow for small businesses registered as companies or other corporate bodies while making large non-corporates pay tax on monthly business .
According to above provision, all kinds of assessee (including body corporate) who paid tax less than Rs. 25 lakh are required to pay tax and file return quarterly in the FY 2012-13 where as your current article states to the contrary. Please check and revert at the earliest.
