Following precautions should be taken:- 1) Plea of reasonable cause. 2) Limitation plea. 3) In case of import of services, plea under section 66A. 4) Response should counter all allegations invoked in SCNs. 5) Relevant case laws, clarifications, notifications,circulars & instructions should be reffered. 6) Penalty under Section 76 and 78 cannot be imposed simultaneously. 7) Plea of voluntary payment of service tax before issue of show cause notice. 8) Power of issuing authority and its jurisdiction.

Your query is very general. Any SCN can be a special feature of proceedings depending on applicable law according to the period, facts of the case and scope of SCN. The reply should be to the point of scope of SCN, and all possible contentions should be raised on facts as well as on technical and legal aspects to win the case.

Every SCN has its own facts. we should try to put stress on facts cleary because misrepresentation facts leads to unwanted results.
