2019 (9) TMI 284 - HC - Service TaxRecovery of amount due to Central Government - threat of coercive action - the second respondent has called upon the petitioner to remit the admitted service tax along with appropriate interest, penalty and late fee under the threat of coercive action. Since there was no compliance with the notice measures were initiated in terms of the Revenue Recovery Act. - applicability of Certificate No.1 of 2013 issued under Section 11 of the Central Excise Act, 1944 - HELD THAT:- The provisions of the Finance Act, 1994 are adequate to support the action taken in the present case for recovery. No doubt, the Certificate referred to in the impugned communication states at the top 'Section 11 Certificate No.1/2012' - However, mere reference to Section 11 (without even reference to the statute) would not vitiate the Certificate itself. Clearly, the provisions of Section 87 (D) provide for the drawing-up of a certificate for tax arrears and that is what has been done in the present case. The objections raised by the petitioner are seem to hyper-technical and rejected as such - Petition dismissed.
