Consignors prepared the invoices and charged the IGST at appropriate rate and downloaded the e-way bill from the common portal electronically in which the transporter's details and details of invoices are duly mentioned. The contention of the counsel for the petitioner is that though the e-way bill has been downloaded from common portal while providing all details as necessary to be mentioned in 'Part A', since the dealers/consignors were not aware about the details of vehicle by which the goods were supposed to be transported from the godown of the transporter situated at U.P. Boarder, Ghaziabad to its ultimate destination the vehicle details could not be furnished in 'Part B' at that time.

They are also engaged in a small manner in rent-a-cab service and manpower supply service. From the Table 1 in Para-20 of the SCN, it is apparent that the gross receipts have been taken as per form 26AS (under the Income Tax provisions) and on such gross receipts for the period 2010-11 to 2014-15 without allowing any abatement the service tax have been demanded. There appears to be no examination as to the taxable nature of the gross receipt as per the provisions of the Service Tax Law and the Rules thereunder. Pursuant to the re
