Commissioner Of Service Tax vs Arvind Mills Ltd....Opponent(S) on 20 March, 2014
8. Ld. Counsel appearing for the respondent submits that
the respondent herein had paid the amount on the directions
of the Officers of DGCEI on visit. He would submit that the
question of discharging service tax liability as alleged in
the show cause notices would not arise as per the decision
(11) Appeal Nos. ST/557-558/2008
ST/680/2009, ST/246-256/2011
of Hon'ble High Court in the case of Arvind Mills Limited
(supra). It is his submission that when the tax liability
does not arise, the question of any amount collected during
investigation as tax is totally incorrect argument of the
Revenue and the said amount needs to be considered as a
deposit for hearing and disposing of the appeal on merits.
