Case Laws Service Tax HC

HC dismissed the writ petition challenging service tax adjudication against municipal corporation services. Despite arguments regarding exemption under Notification No. 25/2012-ST, the court found the petitioners' request for a common adjudicator as an afterthought. The original adjudication orders were set aside for procedural irregularities and remanded for fresh consideration, while maintaining the individual nature of each petitioner's case. The court emphasized that the KMC's exemption claim remains subject to detailed scrutiny and has not been automatically accepted.
