2015 (10) TMI 457 - AT - Service Tax


Issues:
Service tax demands under Business Auxiliary Service, Authorised Service Station, and Renting of Immovable Property.

Analysis:
1. Renting of Immovable Property:
The appellant had paid service tax on rents received, supported by challans. The net unpaid liability was &8377; 95,896, not &8377; 11,24,288 as confirmed. Adjustments between short payments and excess payments were not permissible. The matter was remitted for correct computation.

2. Authorised Service Station:
The appellant partially discharged the service tax liability through Cenvat Credit and cash, but the Adjudicating Authority did not give due credit. The demand of &8377; 32,38,391 was reduced to &8377; 1,66,669 after adjustments. However, such adjustments were impermissible, and the matter was sent back for reevaluation.

3. Business Auxiliary Service:
The appellant accepted liability on PDI charges but disputed miscellaneous income and incentives from Maruti Suzuki Ltd. The appellant claimed the incentives were trade discounts, not subject to service tax. Lack of evidence and consideration led to the matter being remanded for further examination. The appellant was given the opportunity to provide supporting documents, and the Adjudicating Authority was directed to verify with Maruti Suzuki Ltd. authorities.

In conclusion, the appeal was allowed by way of remand for all issues, and the stay petition was disposed of. The Adjudicating Authority was instructed to reevaluate the service tax demands under each category, considering the evidence and submissions presented by the appellant.
