The applicant / appellant further approached the office of the Asst. Commissioner by their letter dated 11.05.2018 received in the office of the respondent on 14.05.2018, wherein the applicant categorically stated that they did not hear from the respondent- department for adjudication of the matter even after about 5 months of passing of the Hon'ble CESTAT's order in pursuance of the Final Order dated 15.11.2017. Further, they stated that they have filed an application dated 25.04.2018 for granting of the refund along with release of the bond and bank guarantee, and the application dated 26.04.2018 was returned back to them stating that the matter is still pending with the Commissioner, Central Excise, Rohtak, for denovo adjudication and they were required to app

ii. On commencement of GST from 01.07.2017, the jurisdiction of all the CGST Commissionerates was re-allocated. Since M/s J. V. Industries were registered with Mandoli Division under GST Delhi East Commissionerate and M/s JSL were registered with Hissar Division under GST Rohtak Commissionerate, this office sought guidance from the Chief Commissioner's office as to whether the directions contained in the Order No. 04/2017 dated 16.06.2017 may be complied with.
iii. Vide letter C. No. IV(16)660/JV Indus/ Samiksha/GST-East/2017 dated 21.02.2018, the Review Branch informed that the CESTAT Final Order No. A/57983/2017-EX(DB) dated 15.11.2017 i.r.o. M/s J. V. Industries Pvt. Ltd. had been accepted by the competent authority. Vide the FO dated 15.11.2017 referred above, the CESTAT directed the adjudicating authority to decide /pass the original order a

adjudication.
vi. The adjudicating authority once again granted personal hearing to the party on 18.07.2018 which was attended by Sh. Vijendra Kumar, authorised signatory appointed by M/s J.V. Industries Pvt. Ltd., who despite being affirmed by this office regarding the appointment of Commissioner, GST Delhi East Commissionerate as the common adjudicating authority, repeatedly requested to apprise them of the 'correct' adjudicating authority, which in terms of Final Order dated 06.08.2015, shall be adjudicating the captioned SCNS so as to eliminate the possibility of the matter being taken up simultaneously by the Rohtak Commissionerate for adjudication. Further, they also provided a 'tentative' list of the persons for the purpose of cross examination.
vii. This office, vide letter C. No. CE-15/Adj/D-II/469/JV/08 dated 06.08.2018, had requested the party to submit a final list of the witnesses along with the detailed reason for cross-examination of each of the witnesses clearly, to

nce of the final order of this Tribunal and consequent refund of Rs. 4.40 crores and also release of the bond and bank guarantee made during investigation in terms of the earlier final order dated 15.11.2017, in response thereto, by his letter dated 26.04.2018, the Asst. Commissioner informed the appellant that their refund claim cannot be entertained by the respondent at the moment, as their matter is still pending with the Commissioner for denovo adjudication in terms of the earlier final order of this Tribunal dated 06.08.2015, further read with CESTAT Final Order No. 57983/2017-Ex (DB) dated 15.11.2017. The appellants were further advised to approach Commissioner, the adjudicating Authority, in the matter and the subject refund application was stated to be returned back. The applicant / appellant further approached the office of the Asst. Commissioner by their letter dated 11.05.2018 received in the office of the respondent on 14.05.2018, wherein the applicant categorically stated

supra, it is evident that non-compliance by the Commissioner was not deliberate but due to reorganisation of field formation, on account of GST implementation w.e.f. 01.07.2017.
14. Having considered the rival contentions and in view of the fact that the Board have now appointed a common Adjudicating Authority vide Order No. 2/2018-CE dated 22.06.2018, we find it just and proper to give the following directions:
 (i) The appellant M/s J. V. Industries Private Limited and the other connected party M/s JSL Stainless Limited are directed to file their submissions/ representation before the respondent adjudicating authority on or before 15.10.2018. Thereafter, the ld. Respondent Commissioner shall fix the date of hearing. The hearing shall be held on day-to-day basis and the parties/ assessee will not ask for adjournment and co-operate in the adjudication process. The ld. Commissioner is expected to pass the re-adjudication order within a period of three months i.e. on or before 25.

2 WHEN THEY DISQUALIFY TEXTILE INDUSTRY FOR CASH REFUND OF ITC, THAT TIME THEY DID NOT CLEARED THAT INVERTED DUTY WILL BE LAPSE AND RIGHT TO UTILIZE THE SAME WAS CONTINUE, .ANY AMENDMENT IN LAW MUST BE EFFECTIVE FROM FUTURE SHOULD NOT EFFECT PAST.

The possibility of journey up to Supreme Court cannot be ruled out. It is pertinent to mention here without fight you will lose today. If you opt for litigation as you intend, your victory is sure. Keep it on record. This is my assessment of your situation. I also agree with both experts.

capital and inverted duties as the law doesn't require HSN wise GST accounting hence it's impossible to find out which one is utilized and which one is surplus. Let us see it by the following examples
Example 1.
There are two assesses A and B both have inverted itc A have utilized the same in the said period so he have nothing to lose but B did not utilized it hence he have to lose the accumulated gst, it's not fair with B because both a and b have inverted duty but only b is losing his itc due to accumulation but a have nothing to lose because he utilized his itc. The base of laps should be inverted duty instead of accumulation.
Example 2.
C who have inverted duty and utilized it till month of june 18,and he have input credit from capital goods in july18 then according to formula given he have to lapse itc out of capital inputs, because lapse itc is calculated for the period 01/07/18 to 31/07/18.

Refund of accumulated credit on account of inverted duty structure to fabric manufacturers: Fabrics attract GST at the rate of 5% subject to the condition that refund of accumulated ITC on account of inversion will not be allowed. However, considering the difficulty faced by the Fabric sector on account of this condition, the GST Council has recommended for allowing refund to fabrics on account of inverted duty structure. The refund of accumulated ITC shall be allowed only with the prospective effect on Purchases made after the notification is issued.

COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF REVERSE CHARGE MECHANISM UNDER GST LAW

COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF REVERSE CHARGE MECHANISM UNDER GST LAW
By: – Sandeep Rawat
Goods and Services Tax – GST
Dated:- 12-9-2018

COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF REVERSE CHARGE MECHANISM UNDER GST LAW
“Reverse charge mechanism under GST law is quite complicated. There is also misconception among the taxpayers. I have received a lot of queries related to the reverse charge mechanism. Therefore through this article, I have tried to prepare Critical analysis which may be useful to the taxpayers to avoid confliction.”
Generally, the supplier of goods or services is liable to pay GST. However, in specified cases like imports and other notified supplies, the liability may be cast on the recipient under the reverse charge mechanism. Reverse charge means the liability to pay tax is on the recipient of supply of goods or services instead of the supplier of such goods or services in respect of notified categories of supply.
TWO TYPE OF REVERSE CHARGE SCENARIOS IN GST LAW.
* First is d

= = = = = = = =

Plain text (Extract) only

= = = = = = = =

the supply of taxable goods or services or both by a supplier, who is not registered, to a registered person shall be paid by such person on reverse charge basis as the recipient and all the provisions of this Act shall apply to such recipient as if he is the person liable for paying the tax in relation to the supply of such goods or services or both.
Accordingly, whenever a registered person procures supplies from an unregistered supplier, he needs to pay GST on reverse charge basis. However, supplies where the aggregate value of such supplies of goods or services or both received by a registered person from any or all the unregistered suppliers is less than five thousand rupees in a day are exempted.
REGISTRATION
A person who is required to pay tax under reverse charge has to compulsorily register under GST and the threshold limit of ₹ 20 lakhs (Rs. 10 lakhs for special category states except J & K) is not applicable to him.
ITC
A supplier cannot take ITC of GST paid o

hen you have purchased from an unregistered supplier AND such purchase of goods or services falls under reverse charge.
This is due to the fact that your supplier cannot issue a GST-compliant invoice to you, and thus you become liable to pay taxes on their behalf. Hence, self-invoicing, in this case, becomes necessary.
COMPLIANCES IN RESPECT OF SUPPLIES UNDER REVERSE CHARGE MECHANISM:
* As per section 31 of the CGST Act, 2017 read with Rule 46 of the CGST Rules, 2017, every tax invoice has to mention whether the tax in respect of supply in the invoice is payable on reverse charge. Similarly, this also needs to be mentioned in receipt voucher as well as refund voucher, if tax is payable on reverse charge.
Maintenance of accounts by registered persons: Every registered person is required to keep and maintain records of all supplies attracting payment of tax on reversecharge
Any amount payable under reverse charge shall be paid by debiting the electronic cash ledger. In other wor

registered suppliers will not attract GST. In other words, there is a reverse charge on buying from unregistered dealers if you are dealing with unregistered suppliers and making payments above ₹ 5,000.
For Inter-state purchases the buyer has to pay IGST. For Intra-state purchased CGST and SGST has to be paid under RCM by the purchaser.
(TILL DATE IT IS NOT EFFECTIVE)
B. Services through an e-commerce operator
If an e-commerce operator supplies services then reverse charge will be applicable to the e-commerce operator. He will be liable to pay GST.
For example, UBER provides services of passengers transport through cab. UBER is liable to pay GST and collect it from the customers instead of the registered service providers.
If the e-commerce operator does not have a physical presence in the taxable territory, then a person representing such electronic commerce operator for any purpose will be liable to pay tax. If there is no representative, the operator will appoint a repre

ORDER
Per Bench
Brief facts are that the appellants are engaged in providing manpower supply service, security service and cleaning service mainly to the airlines industry. During the course of audit of accounts, it was noticed that during the period April 2008 to September 2010, the appellant had collected service tax but had not remitted the same to the Government Account. It was also noticed that they had delayed the payment of service tax for earlier period from October 2007 to March 2008.

s unable to pay the service tax. They could not afford to delay the payment of wages to the 5000 labourers employed for baggage handling, ticketing, ground support, driving etc. In order to sustain the business, the appellant had to give priority to such payments. Moreover, the appellant could not retrench their employees also as they have to continue to supply the manpower to airlines. As and when any amounts were received by the appellant from the airlines, albeit with service tax, the amounts were used by the appellant to pay salary to its employees as otherwise the entire business would go to standstill. The failure to pay service tax was only due to giving priority to such payments in order to avoid closure of business. The appellant had also requested the department to recover their dues from M/s. Indian Airlines and M/s. Kingfisher Airlines who owes major sums to the appellant. Thus, he explained that the non-payment of service tax was only due to such delayed receipt of amounts

f service tax was due to non-receipt of the dues from the airlines and also due to the delayed receipt of amounts. It is seen from the records that their clients include M/s. Indian Airlines and M/s. Kingfisher Airlines. The appellant in their reply to the show cause notice has stated that they were undergoing much financial crisis due to non-receipt of the amounts from airlines. The said ground of non-payment of service tax due to financial difficulties has been discussed in detail by the Tribunal in the case of M/s. Dusters Total Solutions Pvt. Ltd. (supra) wherein the Tribunal had set aside the penalty imposed under Section 76 of the Finance Act invoking section 80 of the said Act. Similarly, in the case of M/s. Q Source Global consulting Pvt. Ltd. vide reported in 2018 (8) TMI 423, the penalty imposed under section 78 was set aside on the ground that the appellant has put forward reasonable cause for non-payment of service, which was due to financial hardship.

ORDER
Per: V. Padmanabhan
1. The present appeal is against the Order-in-Original No. 374/2011 dated 17.11.2011. The period of dispute is June 2007 to March 2010. The impugned order denied the cenvat credit availed by the appellant on common input services used to render taxable as well as exempted services. It is relevant to record that the appellant, M/s. Sify Technologies Ltd. (SFL) got merged with M/s. Sify Communication Ltd. (SCL),

= = = = = = = =

Plain text (Extract) only
For full text:-Visit the Source

= = = = = = = =

credit on common input services should not exceed 20% of the output service tax liability. This restriction was done away w.e.f. 01.04.2008 when Rule 6(3) was amended and Rule 6(3A) was included providing for reversal on proportionate basis. After issue of show cause notice dated 06.01.2011, the adjudicating authority passed the impugned order dated 17.11.2011 in which the entire cenvat credit availed on common input services was ordered to be reversed. Aggrieved by the decision, the present has been filed.
3. With the above background heard Sh Raghavan Ramabadran, ld. Advocate for the appellant as well Sh. K. Veerabhadra Reddy, JC (AR) for the department.
4. The arguments advanced by the ld. Advocate are summarized below:-
a. An identical issue in respect of SFL prior to it merger with SCL had already been raised by Revenue by way of show cause notice no. 48/2006 dated 12.10.2006 which was decided by issue of Order-in-Original dated 30.09.2009. The appeal against the said Order-in-

= = = = = = = =

Plain text (Extract) only
For full text:-Visit the Source

= = = = = = = =

atisfies the provisions of Rule 6 (3) and consequently the Revenue is not justified, to order reversal of the entire credit availed on common input services.
c. The ld. Advocate further reiterated the submissions made in Appeal ST/00028/2010 to the effect that only Rule 6 (3)(c) is applicable in respect of common inputs/ input services and that Rule 6(2) and Rule 6(3) can operate concurrently.
d. The ld. Advocate also argued that out of the total demand confirmed amounting to Rs. 1,56,36,250/- an amount or Rs. 1,01,12,140/- pertains to the credit of input services specified in Rules 6(5) of CCR, 2004 for which cenvat credit in full is eligible to be availed. He submitted that this amount cannot be ordered for reversal.
e. The ld. Advocate also contested the allegation of suppression of facts on the part of the appellant as well as the order for payment of penalties.
5. The ld. DR justified the impugned order and opposed the arguments advanced on behalf of the appellant. He emphasiz

= = = = = = = =

= = = = = = = =

rence to common input services. He emphasized that the appellant has chosen the option of maintaing separate account as required under Rule 6(2) and has availed the credit in full in respect of the taxable services and NIL in respect of services exclusively used for exempted services. He submitted that in spite of the amendments carried out on 01.04.2008, the appellant will not be entitled to any credit on common input services.
(d) Even though the appellant has carried out proportionate reversal of common input services as per Rule 6(3A), the appellant cannot be allowed to avail the cenvat credit on common input services since they have opted to follow Rule 6(2).
6. Heard both sides and carefully perused the record.
7. For the period up to 31.03.2008, both sides agree that the issue on merit is identical to the issue decided in order in original dated 30.09.2009. The appellant has challenged the said order in appeal no. ST/00028/2010, which was heard on 06.08.2018. Subsequently the

= = = = = = = =

pression, the taxpayer have argued that the ingredients mentioned in proviso to Sec. 73(1) is not present in their case and hence extended period of limitation cannot be invoked for demanding wrongly availed cenvat credit beyond period of one year. Also they have stated that earlier notices had been issued to Sify Technologies on the same issue and the Department was aware of the facts and hence another notice cannot be issued invoking suppression of facts. In this regard, I find that the present notice, eventhough addressed to Sify Technologies, pertains to the wrongly availed excess credit by Sify Communications, which was earlier a separate entity and got merged with Sify Tech only w.e.f. 01.04.2008 and the consolidated returns for both the companies were filed only w.e.f 01.04.2009. The earlier notices had been issued only to Sify Technologies for wrong availment of Cenvat Credit on common input services when they had claimed to maintain separate set of accounts. The presence of si

ith an intent to avail excess credit to which they are not eligible. I therefore hold that extended period of limitation under Rule 14 of CCR read with proviso to Sec. 73(1) for demand of excess credit availed has been rightly invoked.”
Since SCL and SFL remained as separate entities prior to their merger, we are of the view that invoking the extended period of limitation in the second show cause notice dated 06.01.2011 will not be against the order of the Supreme Court in the Nizam Sugar case.
10. On the main issue of common input services for the period upto 01.04.2008, the relevant findings of the Tribunal vide Final Order No. 42327/2018 dated 30.08.2018 are reproduced below.
“9. We have heard both the sides and perused appeal records. The facts of the case are not in dispute. It is only the application of provisions of Rule 6 to the facts of the case which are in dispute. Admittedly, the appellants were using inputs / input services which are common for exempted as well as taxa

the provisions of that rule.
(2) Where a manufacturer or provider of output service avails CENVAT credit in respect of any Inputs or input services and manufactures such final products or provides such output service which are chargeable to duty or tax as well as exempted goods or services, then, the manufacturer or provider of output service shall maintain separate accounts for receipt, consumption and inventory of input and input service meant for use in the manufacture of dutiable final products or in providing output service and the quantity of input meant for use in the manufacture of exempted goods or services and take CENVAT credit only on that quantity of input or input service which is intended for use in the manufacture of dutiable goods or in providing output service on which service tax is payable.
(3) Notwithstanding anything contained in sub-rules (1) and (2), the manufacturer or the provider of output service, opting not to maintain separate accounts, shall follow ei

Plain text (Extract) only
For full text:-Visit the Source

= = = = = = = =

/provider of an output service availing CENVAT Credit, but manufactures/provides output services which are both chargeable to duty as well as exempted. Sub-rule (2) requires the manufacturer/provider of output service to maintain separate accounts for inputs/input services which are used for manufacture of dutiable goods/providing taxable service as well as those which are used towards the exempted goods/services. In terms of the sub-rule (2), the assessee is allowed to take CENVAT Credit only in respect of inputs/input services used towards dutiable goods/services. Sub-rule (3), on the other hand, caters to the circumstances where the manufacturer/service provider does not maintain separate accounts as per sub-rule (2). The procedure which is required to be followed in such circumstances is outlined in sub-rule (3).
11. The appellants have relied on the principle laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Gujarat Narmada Fertilizers Co. Ltd.(supra). However, they have relied on t

= = = = = = = =

Plain text (Extract) only
For full text:-Visit the Source

= = = = = = = =

ntioned in sub-rule (2). In other words, it is very clear that plenary provision of sub-rule (1) is giving exception to a situation envisaged in sub-rule (2). Sub-rule (2) is for a 'manufacturer' or 'provider of output service' who shall maintain separate accounts for receipt, consumption and inventory of input and input services meant for use in the manufacture of dutiable final products or in providing output service as well as those exempted. A combined reading of provisions of Rule 6 makes it clear that CENVAT credit shall not be allowed for input services both for exempted as well as taxable output services, maintains separate accounts in respect of consumption of such input services on which credit is availed.
12. Sub-rule (3) of Rule 6 is another option available to the assessee who opts not to maintain separate accounts under sub-rule (2). Thus sub-rule (3) provides for a situation when a manufacturer / service provider who is using common inputs for dutiable and exempted pro

opinion that will defeat the very mandate of the main provision under sub-rule (1).
13. We note that mechanism adopted by the appellant for following both sub-rule (2) and sub-rule (3) in respect of different common input services defeats the very restrictions placed under different conditions of sub-rule (3). As seen in the present case itself that appellant invoked clause (c) of sub-rule (3) and submitted that they were not hit by restriction of 20% in utilizing credit on tax liability of final output services, on the ground that total credit availed under sub-rule (3) falls short of the same. We note this claim is misleading and ignoring the fact that they have maintained separate accounts and availed full credit in respect common input services attributable to taxable output services in terms of sub-rule (2). In other words, it would lead to a situation where the assessee can choose to maintain separate account in respect of common input services under sub-rule (2) and, at the s

rule (2) and sub-rule (3) simultaneously. Hence the question of irregularly availing and disputing the reversal due to lack of legal machinery is not tenable. In other words, the appellants should follow legal provision as per Rule 6. Having not followed, they cannot take a plea that there is no provision to deny credit already availed. When the appellants maintained separate accounts for common input services and availed credits under sub-rule (2) of Rule 6, then there is no question of another option for common input services under sub-rule (3) of Rule 6″
11. By following our order (supra) in respect of the appellant we hold that appellant will not be entitled to credit on common input services. Turning to the period post 01.04.2008, we note that Rule 6(3) has been amended from this date and Rule 6 (3A) has been inserted in place of the erstwhile Rule 6(3) (c) which had prescribed a limit of 20% on the common input services credit. Rule 6(3A) has prescribed the procedure for propor

= = = = = = = =

Plain text (Extract) only
For full text:-Visit the Source

= = = = = = = =

ertion of sub Rule 3A.
13. The only issue which remains to be addressed before we conclude the matter is in respect of the argument advanced that the appellant is entitled to the full cenvat credit in respect of input services specified in Rule 6(5) of the Cenvat Credit Rules. This sub rule permits full credit of 17 services specified therein. We see no reason for denying the above credit. It is also relevant to record that in the earlier proceeding culminating in the Order In Original dated 30.09.2009, the full credit of services under Rule 6(5) was in fact allowed by the adjudicating authority.
14. In view of the above detailed discussions the appeal of the appellant is decided as follows:-
1 The invoking of extended period in terms of the Rule 14 of the CCR, 2014 read with the proviso to section 73 (l) is upheld.
2. The demand raised and confirmed in the impugned order is sustained. However the appellant will be entitled to the entire credit claimed under Rule 6(5). The adjudica

ORDER
Per Ms. Sulekha Beevi C.S.
This appeal is filed by the department against the order of Commissioner of Central Excise who partly set aside the demand raised in the show cause notice.
2. The respondents are engaged in manufacture of motor vehicles. During scrutiny of ER-I Returns, for the months of December 2008, April 2009, June 2009 and November 2009, it was noticed that the respondents had removed 16 numbers of motor vehicles (prototypes) (2200CC – 7 Seater) to their unit Nasik on ret

issioner vide impugned order held that the valuation is to be done under Rule 4 and that Rule 11 r/w Rule 8 is not applicable. The assessable value adopted by the assessee was increased by the adjudicating authority and differential duty was confirmed under Rule 4. The assessee had paid the said enhanced differential duty. Aggrieved by the dropping of the demand as raised in the show cause notice as well as penalties, the department has filed the present appeal.
3. The ld. AR Shri K. Veerabhadra Reddy appeared and argued on behalf of the department. At the foremost, it was submitted by him that the respondents did not file any appeal or cross-objections and therefore the findings of the Commissioner that the goods (prototypes) are marketable and excisable requires no interference. The issue therefore is with regard to only valuation. The prototype motor vehicles were cleared by the respondents to their own unit at Nasik for testing their road worthiness as a prerequisite prior to manu

in the case of Indian Drug Manufacturers' Association Vs. Union of India – 2008 (222) ELT 22 (Bom.). The said case is relating to the value of physician samples and the goods cannot be compared with that of the present goods. Another decision relied upon by the adjudicating authority is the case of M/s. VST Tillers and Tractors Ltd. Vs. Commissioner of Central Excise – 2003 (159) ELT 699. In the said case, the issue before the Tribunal was whether the IC engines consumed captively by the assessee can be valued on the basis of sale price of identical goods sold subsequently. In the present case, prototypes are not identical goods with the similar model motor vehicles sold subsequently and therefore the decision would not apply. When the prototype vehicles are sold for the purpose of testing of road worthiness, the situation is akin to the prototype vehicles being used / consumed in the manufacture of motor vehicles and therefore Rule 8 would be applicable for valuation. Thus, when there

t which the vehicles are likely to be sold after commencing commercial production was adopted by the respondent in terms of Rule 4 of Central Excise Valuation Rules 2000. Thus the case of the department that the prototype when used for testing is akin to captive consumption is a wrong allegation. The prototypes are not captively consumed and therefore Rule 8 is not applicable. The prototypes are not consumed by the respondents for manufacture of further motor vehicles. Such prototypes are final product by themselves and cannot be said to be consumed in the manufacture of further motor vehicles. That the allegation that the respondent ought to have adopted Rule 8 and CAS-4 is entirely wrong. He adverted to the Order-in- Original No.18/2010 dated 28.10.2010 in their own case passed by the Commissioner of Central Excise, Pune wherein on similar set of facts and issue, the adjudicating authority had dropped the proceedings. On the very same issue, another show cause notice was issued which

that has to be looked into is only with regard to the valuation of the prototypes. The department contends that the valuation under Section 4(1)(b) r/w Rule 11 and Rule 8 should be applied. It is pertinent to note that when the respondent was asked to submit CAS-4 statement, the assessable value has been arrived to be Rs. 71,14,198/- for one motor vehicle. At no stretch of imagination, the assessable value of similar model vehicle can be Rs. 71,14,198/-. It is to be noted that under Rule 126 of Central Motor Vehicle Rules, 1989, a prototype of every motor vehicle shall be subject to testing by designated Government Departments or Research Associations or Testing Institutes to ascertain the compliance of provisions of the Act and Rules. The said Act itself uses the word 'prototypes'. Only after certification by such authorities can the manufacturer of motor vehicles manufacture and market the motor vehicles. The similar model vehicles which are commercially manufactured can be said to b
