High Court upholds power of Revenue to demand Service Tax post introduction of GST

Facts: Petitioner impugning that the SCN issued to it for recovery of service tax is not legally valid as w.e.f 01.07.2017, the legal regime has changed with introduction of GST which by section 174 repealed the Finance Act, 1994.

The Hon’ble High Court held as under

Section 174(2)(c) of CGST Act, 2017 prima facie seems to preserve the levy insofar as any liability to pay tax was incurred by the individual or concern. Court is of the opinion that the present writ petition cannot be maintained. It is open to the Writ petitioner to raise all contentions including levy and extent of levy of service tax before the adjudicating officer concerned. Writ petition is disposed of.
