Continuation of pre GST service tax audits remains lawful under GST transitional provisions, permitting ongoing investigations and recoveries.
The GST enactment preserves existing investigations and proceedings so that ongoing service tax inquiries, verifications (including audit), assessments, adjudications and recoveries relating to the pre GST period may be instituted, continued or enforced despite repeal or amendment of prior fiscal statutes; accordingly, departmental service tax audits for the pre GST period remain legally permissible and are being conducted to close outstanding cases.
