20 April 2009 Please apply in form R ( see CE forms) along with grounds and give the copiesof the agreement.
State that what was paid was not a tax as the same was never liable as per the circular. Attach proof of how much paid to the Contractor. A consoildated bill or certificater of the builder with a declaration that he has paid the taxes due to the govt would certainly help.
Apply and wait - SCN would be issued - reply - hearing - order for or against- appeal if needed- final order - payment
