Benefit of input service tax credit was denied due to failure to submit Cenvat credit account showing credit taken in books within one year from invoice date. Commissioner (Appeals) should re-examine eligibility for adjustment against demand for 2014-15, 2016-17 & 2017-18 after considering supporting documents. Service tax demand calculated on net receipt basis upheld, except for Rs.47,683/- confirmed after incorrect abatement percentage applied. Extended period of limitation invoked correctly as wrong practice followed cannot be considered disclosure of facts. Order partly set aside for re-determination of Rs.47,683/- demand, adjustment eligibility for certain years, and consequential penalty. Remaining findings upheld as no error substantiated.
