OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER OF CENTRAL EXCISE : PUNE III COMMISSIONERATE,

ICE HOUSE, 41-A, SASOON ROAD, PUNE 411 001.

ATTENTION

            All Service Tax Assessees are required to file their half-yearly returns electronically w.e.f

1^st October  2011, as per CBEC Notification No. 43/2011-ST.

            All existing Service Tax Assessees who are not registered on ACES are required to register themselves on ACES to file returns electronically.

            For the existing Assessees, whose data is migrated from SACER/ SAPS  into ACES, the system generates a TPIN (Temporary Personal Identification Number) and password for initial access to the application. TPIN and password have been sent to the Assessee’s email id, mentioned at the time of registration with the department. The format of TPIN is t+‘9 digit number’ (e.g. t012345678). A message with details for accessing ACES is sent to the email id available in Assessee’s registration details. The message contains a hyperlink to User Name selection screen in ACES, and password for the assessee.

            When the Assessee accesses ACES application for the first time through the hyperlink, TPIN is auto populated and assessee has to enter the new User Name that would be used for accessing ACES, password as provided in the mail, new password and details of security question. The system authenticates the user based on the password entered and checks for availability of desired User Name.

Once the User Name and password are assigned successfully, the TPIN is deactivated, and all subsequent logins are possible using the selected credentials.

In case the Assessee has not received the email having T-pin password, the Assessee  needs  to submit a DECLARATION FORM in the format as given :
