Creative Infocity Ltd vs Ahmedabad-Iii on 5 November, 2024

4.14 Further, we agree with the learned chartered accountant that the decision of Nizam Sugar Factory applies squarely to this case and a subsequent show cause notices could not have been issued invoking extended period of limitation. Thus, in view of law laid down by Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Nizam Sugar (supra), the extended period of limitation is also not available to Revenue for subsequent show cause notices. In view of the above discussion, supported by various Apex Court judgments and considering the facts of the present case, we are of the view that the demand under extended period is not sustainable being time barred also apart from merit.

We, therefore, hold that order-in-original dated 27.05.2016 which is arising out of show cause notice dated 27.01.2016 is not sustainable and the same is set aside. As a result, appeal No. E/87068/2016 is allowed.
