Further, I find that the appellant has paid the interest and also 25% of the penalty imposed under Section 78 of the Act within 30 days of receipt of the adjudication order. Therefore, I do not find any merit in the appellant's contention for waiver of penalty under Section 78 of the Act. In the case of Global Facility Management Services Pvt. Ltd. (2013 (5) TMI 230 - CESTAT CHENNAI), the Tribunal upheld the penalty imposed under Section 78 of the Act. - Decided against assessee.
