Points on Sabka VIshwas Scheme

Points on Sabka VIshwas Scheme
  1. Points relating to discrepancies in portal
 
  1.  There is lot of problem in the portal for registration. For non assessee, we can apply. But the portal allows for applying only excise registration. For service tax, we have to approach to GST department. It takes a lot of time. The online facility should be provided.
  2. If we register online on portal as non assessee then it takes us to Central Excise litigation or application. It does not to fill the service tax application. It should be sorted out.
  3. In case we are already registered with the department and forgot our username and password then it allows us to create new username and password. It sends the OTP on registered mobile number and e-mail id. Most of assesse does not remember the registered mobile number and e-mail id. Even the e-mail id has been changed. Then there is no option available. Then we have to approach to department but they do not have answer to this problem. There is no response from portal also.
  4. If we go to file the application online then some cases it does not open the portal and only allows us to “create challan”. When we have not filed the application then how can we file the application?
  5. If we login once but in certain cases portal does not allow login again. There is no solution except to write to helpdesk. But no solution from helpdesk.
  6. The SLVDRS-2 and SLVDRS-3 are generated but everyone it is very difficult to login and see the day to day progress. Many assessees like transporters are not much educated, hence are not able to read the message and communicate with the consultant on time. Hence, it is very difficult to come on hearing or to deposit the amount on time. For this purpose, the hearing should be shown on notice board. It will be very transparent system.
  7. When we have deposited the amount online after issuance of SLVDRS-3 but it is not linking the same with the portal. Hence, this problem should be sorted out. We will not be able to use this amount for any other purpose. The central Excise and service tax are not operational now.
  8. We are not able to download SLVDRS-2, 3 and 4 from website. These are required like for filing withdrawal application from Court, we require the same. But we cannot get the print outs. For this purpose, only screen shot can be taken but it is not acceptable to authorities.
 
 
  1. Other technical problems:-
 
  1. We have filed application in CESTAT but these are lying in defect. Due to this reason, we are not able to file the application online. The portal requires the CESTAT appeal number but the same is not generated. Can we file the application in this case? The defect diary number is generated by registrar office. Can we file the application with that number?
  2. We have filed the appeal along with condonation of delay. Whether we will come under litigation or arrear without hearing taking place for condonation of delay?
  3. The appeal was dismissed for non-appearance. We have filed the restoration of appeal with the appellate authority and it is pending in CESTAT. Can we file the application under this scheme?
  4. When we file the application with the department. The intimation of deposit of dues is to be given to range office or division office or commissionerate. Normally all the offices pursue for the same and many times demand for complete Xerox of case details. It has also been seen that local offices asks the assessee to withdraw the application as they have filed wrong application. But the portal does not allow to withdrawal of application. The right of rejection of application lies with the local department or with the committee. When the Government has said that there should not be any communication between assessee and department then should we provide all the documents to the local offices?
  5. The adjudication officer as well as appellate authorities by OIO and OIA has accepted the contention of assessee and held that certain amount has been deposited by the assessee with department. But local offices demands for the challan and it is told that your application will be rejected. The accepted factual position will not be accepted by the department in the scheme.
 
  1. Legal points:-
 
  1. A case was booked relating to fourth schedule items. If one of applicant is only for penal amount then whether he can opt for the scheme?
  2. There is no provision in law that co-accused will apply only if main assessee has applied for the scheme. But the circular has clarified so. Whether circular can override the legal provisions? Can co-accused apply under the scheme?
  3. The circular as well as FAQ clarified that co-accused can apply after the main accused has applied in the scheme. When the main accused and co-accused are different person and do not have communication with each other then how the co-accused will apply for the same. Moreover, the main accused apply on last date i.e. on December 31, 2019 then how co-accused will apply for the same?
