G. Muthukumar Prop. M/S. Anantha Cable Tv Vs. Commissioner of Central ...

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Chennai

Decided on: Jul-20-2011

According to the applicant who have filed the COD application out of abundant caution, there is no delay in filing the appeal as the Order-in-Revision dated 24.2.2010 and the Corrigendum dated 25.2.2010 was not served and the assessees obtained a copy after receiving the demand notice. However, on verification, learned SDR has been able to establish with reference to postal acknowledgment that the Order-in-Revision as well as Corrigendum was received on behalf of the assessees. Therefore, there is an inordinate delay in filing the above appeal (about 256 days). The assessees have not offered any explanation as to why they could not file the appeal within the time. The COD application is therefore dismissed. As a result the appeal is also dismissed as time barred along with the stay application....

M/S. Jai Automobiles Vs. Commissioner of Service Tax, Chennai

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Chennai

Decided on: Jul-20-2011

1. Demand of service tax of Rs.2,04,000/- together with interest and penalty of Rs. 2 lakhs stand challenged in the present appeal, covering the period 10.9.2004 to 31.1.2006. 2. According to the assessees, commission received post 10.9.2004 is liable to tax under the category of business auxiliary service. However, it is their contention that commission received even prior to 10.9.2004 has been included in the demand. It is their further contention that they are not liable to pay service tax on an amount of Rs.1,92,316/- paid towards road tax, insurance etc. under instructions of customers and reimbursed to them. 3. I find that neither of the authorities below has considered this submission that even amounts of commission received prior to 10.9.2004 having been included in the demand. I, therefore, set aside the impugned order and remit the case for fresh decision to the adjudicating authority before whom all issues are left open for fresh decision. He shall pass fresh orders after ex...

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Chennai

Decided on: Jul-20-2011

1. Vide the impugned order, the Commissioner of Central Excise (Appeals) has disallowed total credit of Rs.21,360/- of service tax paid on (i) telephone service (ii) vehicle maintenance (iii) fixed telephones and (iv) courier agency and has upheld penalty of Rs.10,000/- imposed under Rule 15 of the CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004. 2. I have heard both sides. On the appeal which has been filed only against the denial of credit of service tax paid on telephone service, I agree with the assessees that telephone service having been used for sales promotion, (this is the stand of the assessees in the reply to the show-cause notice which has not been rebutted by the Department), this service is an eligible input service as it is a service used in connection with the activity of business of manufacture of final products by the assesses. I, therefore, hold that the credit of service tax paid on telephone service is admissible to the assessees. Since there is no bifurcation of the amounts denied in r...
