CESTAT ALLAHABAD held that refund claim for service tax under section 65 of Finance Act, 1994 was not time-barred as the relevant date for refund claim was the date of Order-In-Original, not payment date.

Citing Hon'ble Madras High Court decision, Commissioner (Appeal) allowed the refund claim. Revenue's appeal was dismissed as refund claim was timely filed.
