Letter of Approval for IFSC units authorises SEZ facilities subject to statutory approvals, operational conditions, validity, renewal and cancellation...
Payment of service tax by the same legal entity under a different registration or accounting code does not constitute non-payment; tax already discharged on the same taxable event cannot be recovered again, so a duplicate demand for service tax is unsustainable and was set aside. Consequentially, interest and penalties under the Finance Act, 1994 were held not to arise and were also set aside. The tribunal followed a prior Division Bench precedent on the single-entity / inter-unit adjustment issue and allowed the appeal.
