16 April 2008 I AGREE WITH SRI HEMANT.

THE PROCEDURE OF REFUND OF SERV. TAX IS AS FOLLOWS.

SEC 11B OF CENTRAL EXCISE ACT DEALS WITH REFUND OF SERVICE TAX ( SERV. TAX ACT IS GOVERNED BY CENTRAL EXCISE DEPT-AND REVENUE ACCRUES TO CENTRAL GOVT.).
REFUND APPLICATION TO BE MADE IN FORM R
TO BE FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR FROM DATE OF PAYMENT(RELEVANT DATE) OF THE SERV. TAX .
( THE SUBJECT OF RELEVANT DATE HAS MANY INTERESTING JUDICIAL DECISIONS )
APPLICATION FOR REFUND TO BE MADE TO ASST.OR DY. COMMISSIONER OF CENTRAL EXCISE. WE NEED TO ENCLOSE PROOF OF ORIGINAL PAYMENT OF SERVICE TAX AND EXPLAIN IN FORM R OR IN A COVERING LETTER AS TO WHY REFUND AROSE.
IF REFUND IS DENIED,WE CAN PREFER APPEAL ALSO IN 3 MONTHS FROM DATE OF RECEIPT OF ORDER.
