Reported in: (2008)12STJ49CESTATNew(Delhi)

2. The applicant filed this application for waiver of pre-deposit of Rs. 2,71,896/- and penalties. The contention is that while computing the liability amount had paid in cash is taken into consideration whereas the tax is paid from Cenvat credit that has not taken into consideration. The contention is that they had paid tax from the Cenvat credit to the extent of Rs. 2,27,919/-. The contention is that Revenue is also calculating the tax liability by taking into consideration the rate of Service Tax @ 10.2% whereas when the bills were raised in respect of the service provided the rate of tax was only 8% and relevant date for deciding the rate of Service Tax is the date on which bills were raised.
