<h1>Cable Operator's Penalty Overturned Due to Lack of Disclosure; Case Remitted for Fair Hearing.</h1> The case involves a cable operator who was issued a show cause notice by the Department for not providing details about subscriber connections and payments. The Department gathered information from the State Excise Department and local inquiries, concluding the operator charged Rs. 200 per month per customer. Consequently, a demand of Rs. 1,11,600 plus interest and a Rs. 20,000 penalty were imposed. However, the procedure was deemed a violation of natural justice as the nature and outcome of the inquiries were undisclosed. The orders were set aside, and the matter was remitted for a fresh decision with proper disclosure and hearing.
