Pls let me know about this.

I was supposed to pay service tax on 5th the due date for payment. I am also suppose to make payment through e_payment route.

? The designated bank through which i make payment its (the Bank) server were down or some problem with their net banking web. I that case it was impossible to me to pay my service tax due on that date, and it continued till 9th of this month. I paid it on 9th at 3.50pm. In that case whether I am liable to pay interest for delayed payment for no fault of mine which is due to failure of the banks systems.

I there any clarification on this matter.

If I could be reffered to any case law & notification regarding this.

Thank everyone
