2011 (9) TMI 697 - HC - Service TaxPenalty - When two fact finding authorities have held the non-payment of service tax was not intentional, it was not with any intention to avoid tax, considered the circumstances in which the assessee was placed and reduced the penalty, it cannot be said that the said order suffers from any legal infirmity - The contention that once there is a default the payment of penalty is automatically unsustainable in view of the language employed in Section 80 of the Act, where if a sufficient cause is made out for the default under any of these provisions, then no penalty shall be imposed - Decided in favor of the assessee
