Issues:Challenge to disallowance of Cenvat credit of service tax paid on input services by the Adjudicating Authority and Commissioner (Appeals) directing payment of entire service tax amount.Analysis:The petitioner, a public limited company engaged in manufacturing cement products covered by the Central Excise Tariff Act, challenged the disallowance of Cenvat credit of service tax paid on input services. The Adjudicating Authority issued a notice under the Central Excise Act, which led to a challenge by the petitioner. The Tribunal Mumbai Bench's order was presented to support the petitioner's contention, but the Adjudicating Authority passed an order without assigning any reason. Subsequently, the Commissioner (Appeals) directed the petitioner to pay the entire service tax amount, disregarding the Tribunal's order. The petitioner sought parity based on the Tribunal's order in their case.During the Court proceedings, it was noted that no further appeal had been filed against the Tribunal's order. The Court clarified that it was not assessing the merits of the case pending before the Commissioner (Appeals) but considered the Tribunal's order in the petitioner's case. The Court found that the Commissioner (Appeals) order was legally unsustainable, and the petitioner was entitled to protection based on the Tribunal's decision.The Court emphasized that its observations were solely for the disposal of the writ petition and should not influence the authority's decision-making process. The authority was urged to expedite the appeal process in accordance with the law and the mutual agreement of the parties. Consequently, the writ petition was disposed of, granting relief to the petitioner while maintaining the independence of the authority in deciding the appeal.
