Whether appellants' receipts constituted taxable "service" or fell within exemptions: Tribunal found generally that, for lack of mandatory documentary proof (agreements, payment particulars, bank statements), the appellant's activities fell within taxable work-contract/service definitions under Section 65B, making them liable to service tax - outcome: liability sustained. Whether extended limitation (proviso to s.73(1)) could be invoked for a specific receipt: on the particular transaction, produced evidence and bona fide belief (certificates, corrected 26AS) established the receipt as supply of goods and/or an exempt service, so invoking the extended period was not justified - outcome: demand on that receipt not confirmed. - CESTAT
