Text of SC Judgement Service Tax-Renting Commercial Property-File Refund
Supreme Court today declined to grant interim relief to the Govt. and simply admitted the SLP, ordering issuance of notice to respective parties. The High Court judgement therefore is now on firmer footing.
Landlords and tenants should take appropriate steps to protect their interest, which are contradictory to each other. Same advise therefore can not be given to both. What is important is that those who have borne the burden of this tax, whether landlord or the tenant, should immediately file for refund for the full period from which they paid the tax, and not just ONE Year u/s 11B. ACT FAST. Time is running out. I reiterate, that refund can be filed by either the landlord or the tenant. If you are a tenant, and you do not have complete documents, which are to be provided by the landlord, do not wait. File the claim even with incomplete documents. This defect is curable. You will get another opportunity to rectify deficiencies. However, if you have already utilised the same as cenvat credit for payment of tax on output service, then this advise is not applicable. You have already, indirectly taken the refund. Form of Refund Claim is attached. ITEM NO.26 COURT NO.2 SECTION III
