For a Notice of Demand under the Maharashtra Value Added Tax (MVAT) Act, if the client has received the notice but has not yet paid the arrears of demand, the following provisions and steps are applicable:
### Applicable Provisions and Steps:
1. **Notice of Demand**:
- A Notice of Demand under the MVAT Act is issued when there is a shortfall in tax payment, non-filing of returns, or other discrepancies. The notice typically details the amount due, including any interest and penalties.
2. **Section 33(5) of MVAT Act**:
- **Non-payment Consequences**: If the arrears of demand are not paid within the specified period, the tax authority may initiate recovery proceedings under Section 33(5) of the MVAT Act. This can include measures like attaching bank accounts, seizure of property, or other actions to recover the dues.
3. **Interest and Penalties**:
- Interest and penalties for late payment or non-filing are generally levied as per the provisions of the MVAT Act. The interest is usually calculated from the due date of payment until the date of actual payment.
4. **Submission of Returns**:
- If the return for the period in question has not been filed, it is crucial to submit the returns as soon as possible. The tax authority may not process the demand or make adjustments until the return is filed.
5. **Rectification or Appeal**:
- If there are errors in the demand notice or discrepancies in the assessment, the client can apply for rectification or file an appeal with the appropriate authority. This must be done within the prescribed period and in accordance with the procedures laid out in the MVAT Act.
6. **Steps to Resolve the Issue**:
- **File the Outstanding Returns**: Ensure that the returns for the period October 2011 to March 2012 are filed immediately. This can help mitigate penalties and interest that may accrue from non-filing.
- **Pay the Arrears**: Make the payment of the demanded amount, including any interest and penalties. This will help in avoiding further action from the tax authorities.
