<h1>New Guidelines Set Monetary Limits for Central Excise Officers in Service Tax Cases Adjudication.</h1> The circular establishes monetary limits for the adjudication powers of Central Excise Officers concerning service tax cases. It specifies that Commissioners have unlimited authority in cases where service tax is not collected or paid as required, while Additional or Deputy Commissioners can adjudicate cases involving up to ten lakhs of service tax evasion. Assistant Commissioners handle cases with penalties up to fifty thousand for non-compliance with notices. Jurisdiction is determined by the service tax amount involved, and cases with similar issues should be adjudicated by the officer handling the highest amount. Instructions are to be issued to relevant officers for compliance.
