Dear Experts,
My client was discharging Service Tax from his Service Tax registration in Delhi. Another Service tax number was wrongly allotted to him from Lucknow. Our client has given proper application of surrender to jurisdictional officer in March 2017 for wrongly allotted ST Number. In July 2020, based on 3rd party data (26AS), Letter was issued from Lucknow for inquiry of payment of Service Tax against which reply stating the fact that Service Tax was discharged from registered office in Delhi on 25-08-2020.
Show Cause notice was issued demanding full Service tax, Interest & penalty without considering reply submitted by us. Show cause notice was not delivered to client as address mentioned in wrongly allotted Service tax number is not being used by client. on 12-04-2022, order of Asst Comm (Adj) was handed over to client confirming demand of Service Tax, Interest and penalty wherein it is clearly mentioned that in-spite of sending many letters, no reply was submitted by assessee whereas reply was first letter was submitted. Now my client has no option except filing appeal
this would be my first case of appeal hence request to experts to guide:
1. How to draft Statement of Facts, Ground of appeal and prayer (if draft can be shared for similar case or other case of Service tax, it would be very helpful)
2. Whether Appeal to be filed in ST-4 as per earlier law.
3. What other thinks should be taken care of while perusing the case.

Thanks in advance

One of our client received notice from Service Tax Department for the services provided to MES which are fully exempt as per notification no 25/2012. The assessing officer allowing exemption but he is now demanding Contract Copy between me & MES as well as stamp duty paid. I told him about as the MES is government entity, they allot work on the basis of tender published and not forms any kind of contract. As I received the tender, I paid the Security Deposit & not the stamp duty. But, he is not accepting the same.

Please give a expert favor...

Hi,

We have received the order against our SCN and in the same, the officer has denied our input tax credit as it was not recorded in service tax returns. The input tax credit invoices are of December 2016 and January 2017.
My question is, from when do we calculate the interest on the denied ITC and at what rate? I believe there's two rates for paying service tax interest. (24% if service tax is collected and not paid and 15% if service tax not collected and not paid). In which situation do we exactly fall?

Dear sirs, Goods and service tax department issued notices to contractors carrying on highways work only. They are asking if there is a probability of service tax evasion for the year 2016-17.
