Decided on: Dec-07-1998

Reported in: (1999)(105)ELT40TriDel

1. In this case, the Applicant is aggrieved by imposition of penalty of Rs. 20,070/- in terms of Sections 76 and 77 of the Finance Act, 1994 for failure to pay Service Tax within the stipulated period and failure to submit the return within time as required under Rule 6 of the Service Tax Rules, 1994 and Section 70 of the Act. The Applicant's contention is that since Service Tax was introduced only with effect from 1-7-1994 on services rendered by Stock Brokers (the applicant is a Stockbroker), he could not clearly understand the provisions regarding the working out of the amount of taxable service etc., and for this reason, there was a delay in paying the tax and submitting the return which was deposited voluntarily as soon as the value of taxable service was confirmed. He submits that the penalty is not warranted in this situation and prays for dispensation with the pre-deposit requirement.2. The Id. DR, Shri Panchatcharam reiterates the findings contained in the impugned order.3. O...

On 1st December, 1998 I have heard the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the writ petitioners as well as Mr. Madan Lokur, learned Addl. Solicitor General of India.
