Service Tax Return was filed late (184 days late filing)... But tax was paid on time .. Late filing was due to mistake of consultant...(he forgot to file return on time) Received a notice from dept. for Penalty Rs. 16500/- approx Is there any solution to avoid or to reduce penalty .... any supporting case law.... Thanks...

There is no such case law. The late filing fees cannot be avoided. It has to be paid.

@ Raj Naik

In your case, it is not possible to avoid penalty.
