2004 (7) TMI 5 - SCH - Service Tax

Service Tax Services being paid by Goods Transport Operator - Supreme Court after condoning delay admitted the appeal where Tribunal held that even the amended Section 73 takes in only the case of assessees who are liable to file return under Section 70. Admittedly, the liability to file return is cast on the appellants only under Section 71A. The class of persons who come under Section 71A is not brought under the net of Section 73. The above being the position show cause notices issued to the appellants invoking Section 73 are not maintainable.
