Rule 6 (4B) (iv) of the Service tax Rules,1994 talks about the adjustment. But the cause of action of belated submission of adjustment is not mentioned in the rules. So,as per my understanding, the natural cause of action will hold good viz., the claim of adjustment will be denied by the department.

but how would the authority will deny by that time the tax would have already have been paid for instance the tax for a company has to be paid before 5th & the service tax adjustment have to be informed within 15th days
