....-P. It is therefore submitted that the impugned assessment order deserves to be set aside and the matter may be remitted back to respondent No. 2 for verification of the payment made by service provider and to proceed further in the matter. 5. Per contra, learned counsel for respondents would support the impugned order and submit that there is no merit in the appeal and the same is liable to be dismissed. 6.

Being aggrieved by the order dated 24.03.2020 passed by the Settlement Commission the respondent had approached the Writ Court. The learned Single Judge vide order dated 18.08.2021, allowed the Writ Petition in part quashing the impugned part of the orders and remitting the matter to the Settlement Commission for consideration afresh.

....e matter for fresh consideration mainly on the ground that the assessee is ready and willing to produce the original invoices. Hence, adjudicating upon the issue of award of CENVAT Credit on the basis of the Photostat copies of the documents would become academic. In the present set of facts, without dwelling upon the said issue, more particularly, in view of the assessee being ready and willing to produce the original invoices, we are disposing of this case confirming the order of remand.
