They have not furnished any details regarding the detailed list of works contract done along with the copies of agreement, work order, nature of work done, etc., In the absence of such details, the eligibility for exemption or otherwise could not be verified.

Work orders, purchase orders, description of work and installation done, Invoices and other supporting documents were called for. 8. Vide letter dated 27.10.2009 the petitioner had requested 10 days time to furnish the details and file objections and a final opportunity was granted till 16.11.2009. A detailed show cause notice dated 10.12.2009 was thereafter issued proposing confirmation of the proposals made. 9. Vide reply dated 19.12.2009, the petitioner raises the following objections: (i) Challenging the jurisdiction of the Assessing Authority to re-assess on the ground that (i) there is no escapement of tax or turnover to justify the proposed re-assessment and (ii) no material has been gathered after the original order of assessment implying that the present proceedings were a change of opinion, thus impermissible in law. Reliance was placed on the Judgments of the Delhi High Court in the case of Tvl.Krishna Enterprises Vs. Commissioner of Sales Tax (140 STC P. 148) and Binani Industries Limited v.

The Assessing Authority, has on the basis of the materials produced, come to a conclusion that the materials are insufficient and do not satisfy the claim of the petitioner. There was no detailed description given and importantly, no certificate produced from the clients in support of the petitioners' claim that all materials were supplied only by the clients and it was only the activity of installation that was rendered by it. I thus see nothing perverse in the order impugned, warranting interference. Reliance upon the judgement of the Supreme Court in the case of Imagic Creative Pvt. Ltd V. Commissioner of Commercial Taxes and others ((2008) 12 VST 371) is futile in this case as, in my view, it would apply only in a matter where the nature of activity carried on is undisputed. The Writ Petition is dismissed granting liberty as stated in paragraph 15 below. Connected Miscellaneous Petition also dismissed. No costs. 15. The Petitioner is permitted, if it so desires, to file statutory Appeal challenging the impugned order of assessment with ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
