First of all if you have crossed the threshold limit then you were under obligation to ge the registration certificate from the service tax department.

Being a sub contractor you were also liable to charge the service tax while providing output services to main contractor.

If the main contractor pay the tax on your behalf then you are not liable to pay the tax.

It is advisable that you must seek Registration under the Finance Act, 1994 and pay your all statutory dues without any further delay.
