EXTENSION FOR PAYMENT OF SERVICE TAX, Service Tax

[MARIAPPAN GOVINDARAJAN]

The entire Chennai and surrounding cities are surrounded by floods and all infrastructures failed. In such circumstances whether CBEC will extend the date of payment of service tax to some extend considering the circumstances of the present position?

Sir,

I am sure Govt. of India will agree to grant extension as the stipulated dates are practically applicable only in normal circumstances.

Dear Sirs,

I have contacted 011 23095496 and narrated the calamity in Chennai and around Chennai. It was informed that Member (Service Tax) retired on 30.11.2015 and a New Officer is to take charge. On his assumption of charge the extension of time will be considered by him. He requested to wait for two days. We shall wait.

First of all we feel very bad about the conditions prevail in Chennai/Tamil Nadu due to heavy rain. We would be contributing to the State in one way or the other. Thanks and salute to all those have extended their support to Chennai being residing in Chennai. Further I also would like to appreciate the effort Mr.Mariappan sir has initiated. Big pat to him. Further department would definitely take a favourable decision similar to the way it has taken during Uttarakhand flood.

My instinct is proved right. but obvious department does such extension in all special cases like this one. Further the notification is yet to be published to give effect to the extension.

[MARIAPPAN GOVINDARAJAN]

Being Saturday and Sunday holidays, we may expect the circular for the extension date for payment of tax/duty today.

[YAGAY AND SUN]

Dear All,

All credit goes to 'Mariappan Sir', who personally took this initiative for a noble cause, discussed this matter with Board (i.e. CBEC) and succeeded in his efforts, in true sense.

THANK YOU SIR

Sh. Ganeshan Kalyani Ji,

It is your 'hunch' has proved right and not 'instinct'.

[MARIAPPAN GOVINDARAJAN]

Thank you every body. This forum may continue with the existing spirit.

[Ganeshan Kalyani]

Kasturi sir thanks for correcting me. Mariappan sir this forum will exist for 100 more years. This is what I feel.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Sh.Ganeshan Kalyani Ji,

I am thrilled with your wish and comments.

[Ganeshan Kalyani]

Yes sir. TMI is full with energized experts which builds confidence in the mind of queriest to discuss with us and with full satisfaction they get their difficulties removed. I feel proud to be part of such experts. I thank Kasturi sir, Rajagopalan sir, Mariappan sir, Yagay and Sun and of course our colleague Mahir S and other experts nin TMI.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Sh.Ganeshan Kalyani Ji,

I got myself registered with TMI on 4.9.2015. In three months I remained very busy with this site. I really relished the association of experts on this forum. Now if there is less work with me I am not worried. I find no problem in passing time. I am of the view that sitting idle is punishment for me. I accept and contest only those cases which are sustainable on merits. After retirement I feel that clients/assessees are interested in relief only and whether the case is sustainable on merit or not they do not bother. Such type of consultancy does not suit me. I have got the best platform for sharing and updating knowledge.

[Ganeshan Kalyani]

Yes Kasturi sir the forum is very vibrant and live. I believe in sharing and enriching knowledge of others as well mine. I have observed that your replies are strongly supported by Law and explanation is simple for anyone to understand. Thanks for sharing your very valuable knowledge, views etc. Thanks.

Except the press release till date no letter has been issued by the Department about this extension.
