2015 (3) TMI 1050 - HC - Service TaxDenial of refund claim - refusal of pay the refund despite no stay granted by the court against hte refund order - Held that:- respondent was fully aware that it was liable to refund the service tax deposited by the appellant in terms of the order dated 28.12.2011 and for that reason it had filed the stay application and once the stay application had been rejected, the order dated 28.12.2011 ought to have been implemented, as it is a fact that the order dated 10.9.2012 rejecting the stay application had become final. In such view of the matter, though the observations of the learned Single Judge that the respondent would be liable to pay interest @ 12% p.a. may not be interfered with but, in our view, the writ Court ought to have allowed the writ petition and directed refund of the service tax deposited by the petitioner/appellant. - Decided in favour of assessee.
