Dear Experts, One assesee classified different Central Excise Tariff No for local sale and export sale and filled returns year after year. Neither the Divisional Supt nor Audit has raised any objection. But antieviation cell has seized all excise records for last 5 years and issuing summon after summons for interrogation to the employee including the director of the co.
No show cause has been issued after sizer till to date (one month passed). How long dept can issues summon without issuing any show cause notice?

Thank you, Mr. Jangid for your early response, but you have not mentioned any thing about summons. I want to know that 1.how many summons can be issued by the Dept? 2.is there any possibility to issue summon to any employee after issued it to the Director of the Co? 3. can it be issued to a single person more than one? 4. is there any provision within the Act. 5. time of issue of show cause notice is one year, that means can the Dept is going to issue summons upto one year of sizer? Waiting for your reply, Thanks again, S. Bnaerjee
