  Constitutional Validity of circular dated 07.12.2017 - violation of fundamental rights of the Petitioner on account of the taxes being shared and borne by the Petitioner post the enactment of the Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 - infringement of provisions of Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 or not - restitution of benefits to the Petitioner along with interest and compensation within a stipulating period in terms of the order passed by the Hon’ble High Court - HELD THAT:- The question whether, in fact, any amount is owed to the Petitioner by the Opposite Parties on account of GST deducted from its bills or vice versa, has become a highly disputed question of fact. The claim of the Petitioner ultimately, in simple terms, is one for money which it seeks as reimbursement from the Opposite Parties. It is not possible for this Court in....... + More

  Seizure of goods alongwith vehicle - seizure on the ground of vehicle not having an appropriate E-way bill - HELD THAT:- While there appeared to be an apparent mistake in the original E-way bill under Annexure-1, i.e. the name of the seller and the buyer had been erroneously swapped and, therefore, the Revenue was justified in not allowing the vehicle to enter into the State and seized the same, yet we find that once the corrected E-way bill under Annexure-3 was produced before the respondents and the apparent error having been corrected, there is no justification in either initiating the present proceedings against the petitioner or in continuing with the seizure of the vehicle along with goods. In the case at hand, there is no dispute that the parties are genuine, nor is there any dispute that the original E-way bill contained an error........ + More

  Issuance of notice under proviso to sub-section (1) of Section 50 of the CGST Act demanding interest on delayed payment of tax - initiation of recovery proceedings under Section 79 of CGST Act even without issuing a notice under Section 73 of the CGST Act - HELD THAT:- Stay is granted to the effect and operation of impugned notice. Accordingly, it is directed that the effect and operation of the impugned notice dated 25.03.2022 (Annexure P/1) shall remain stayed till the next date of hearing.

  Rejection of refund of the tax paid for the second time and penalty - address from where the timber was dispatched was inadvertently mentioned in the e-Way Bill - HELD THAT:- Due to an unintentional error at the time of generating the e-Way Bill, the address from where the goods were dispatched was wrongly mentioned and accordingly, the goods were rightly confiscated by the respondent authorities. It was not for the respondents to take a decision as to whether the petitioner was intentionally trying to evade tax or not. As there was discrepancy in the document from where the goods were dispatched, the authorities intercepted and confiscated the same. The petitioner was directed to pay the tax as well as penalty - Thereafter it appears that a fresh e-Way Bill was generated immediately after interception. The description of the goods in the....... + More

  Seeking grant of bail - inadvertent mistake - Violation of bail conditions - failure to appear before the Investigation officer - Google pin could not be dropped to the Investigating Officer - HELD THAT:- Taking into consideration the overall facts and circumstances of the case and the fact that the petitioner was granted regular bail vide order dated 17.02.2022 and the impugned order relates to certain non-compliances of the terms and conditions to which the petitioner has given sufficient explanation. In addition, since the petitioner has already undertaken that he would appear before the Investigating Officer as and when he is called for and explain the reason if, at all, any document or information is not available to him, it would be up to the Investigating Officer after perusal or consideration of the explanation by the petitioner t....... + More

The applicant is ordered to be released on regular bail registered with the Office of the Chief Commissioner of State Tax, Enforcement, Gujarat State, Ahmedabad on executing a personal bond of Rs.10,000/- with one surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the trial Court and subject to the conditions imposed - application allowed.

  Refund claim - time limitation - whether the application made by the petitioner is barred by limitation and whether all the documents as required are filed along with the said refund applications? - Section 54 of CGST Act - HELD THAT:- Section 54 of the CGST Act, 2017 deals with ‘Refund of Tax’. It is also not in dispute that the said application must be made within a period of two years from the relevant date in such form and manner prescribed. But, at the same time, it is to be noted that the Government of India, Ministry of Finance issued a Circular dated 25.09.2021 on this aspect. The subject in the said Circular relates to “Refund of Tax” specified in Section 77(1) of CGST and Section 19(1) of IGST Act. A reading of the Circular No.162/18/2021-GST and Column No.3 of 4.3 relating to refund claim, it is clear th....... + More

  Maintainability of appeal - adverse report was not furnished to the appellant - effective opportunity of hearing was not granted to the appellant by the appellate authority - principles of natural justice - HELD THAT:- Admittedly, as against the impugned order as on date there is no other remedy available under the Act since the Tribunal has not been constituted. Therefore, the appellant had to necessarily approach the learned writ court for challenging the said order - when such is the position, the learned writ court would have to examine as to the correctness of the order passed by the appellate authority as the writ petition is the first judicial forum, which will test the correctness of the order passed by the statutory appellate authority. If there is an adverse report drawing certain conclusions against the appellant, then such mat....... + More

  Maintainability of petition - availability of alternative remedy - Jurisdiction - whether authority does not have jurisdiction to issue the show cause notice? - HELD THAT:- The issue relating to the jurisdiction of the authority can very well be raised before the appellate authority and it is the mixed question of fact and law, which can be canvassed by the appellants before the appellate authority. Therefore, we are of the view that the learned Single Bench rightly refused to entertain the writ petition on the ground of availability of alternative remedy, which, in our view, is not only efficacious but also effective as well. In the light of the above, while dismissing the appeal and affirming the order passed by the learned Writ Court, the appellants are directed to file the appeal before the concerned appellate authority in physical fo....... + More

HELD THAT:- Petitioner having to pay 10% of the Tax in dispute under clause (b) of Sub-section (6) of Section 107, can certainly utilise the amount of ITC available in the Electronic Credit Ledger.

  Maintainability of petition - appealable order or not - Levy of interest under Section 50 along with penalty under Section 122(2) of the Central Goods and Service Tax Act, 2017 - restriction on ITC - HELD THAT:- A perusal of Section 50 of CGST Act, 2017 shows that there was an amendment to Section 50 of the CGST Act, which came into effect from 01.06.2021. A reading of Section 50 of CGST Act coupled with the amendment would show that every person who is liable to pay tax in accordance with the provisions of this Act or the rules made thereunder, but fails to pay the tax or any part thereof to the Government within the period prescribed, shall for the period for which the tax or any part thereof remains unpaid, pay, on his own, interest at such rate, not exceeding eighteen percent, as recommended by the Government.

  Rejection of refund claim - zero rated supply - whether the petitioner has supplied Electrical Energy across the border? - entitlement for refund of Input Tax Credit - whether amended Rule 89(2) of CGST Rules, 2022 is clarificatory or declaratory? - HELD THAT:- Circular No.175/07/2022-GST dated 06.07.2022 issued by Ministry of Finance, Government of India clearly establishes that amendment to Rule 89 of CGST (Amendment) Rules, 2022 was carried out to cure the defect in Rule 89 of CGST Rules, 2017, because of the problem faced by power generating units in filing refund claims of unutilised Input Tax Credit on export of electricity. Further, a perusal of the amendment to Rule 89(2) of CGST Rules, would inter-alia show that the said Rule came to be amended only to clarify the anomaly that was existing with regard to production of material ev....... + More

  Reopening of portal for filing of form TRAN-1 - carry forward of CENVAT Credit - Section 140(3) of the CGST Act, 2017 - violation of principles of natural justice - HELD THAT:- It is very clear that the assesses are given two months’ time for filing concerned forms for availing Transitional Credit through TRAN-1 and TRAN-2 i.e, w.e.f. 01.09.2022 to 31.10.2022. Further, the authorities were also directed to see that there would be no technical glitches during the said period. A reading of the said order does not anywhere indicate that the same pertains to a particular assessment year. It appears that any assessee, who intends to file concerned forms for availing Transitional Credit through TRAN-1 and TRAN-2 and was denied earlier because of some technical problem, is always at liberty to make use of the said order and upload the relevant forms during the relevant period. Petition allowed.

  Seeking grant of Regular Bail - availment of irregular input tax credit - HELD THAT:- On perusing the material placed on record and taking into consideration the facts of the case, nature of allegations, gravity of offences, role attributed to the accused, without discussing the evidence in detail, this Court is of the opinion that this is a fit case to exercise the discretion and enlarge the applicant on regular bail. In the facts and circumstances of the present case and considering the role attributed to the applicant and the allegations levelled against him, the case of the applicant deserves consideration and, therefore, the case of the applicant needs to be considered.
