Stay on implementation and operation of the impugned sealing memos in relation to the Godown - the godown is used for the purpose of storing agricultural produce like cotton bales and cotton yarn - grievance of the writ applicant is that he, being the owner of the godown, the seal which has been affixed, cannot be for an indefinite period of time.
HELD THAT:- Section 67(2) and 67(4) of CGST Act makes it clear that if the proper officer, not below the rank of Joint Commissioner, either pursuant to a search carried out under sub-section (1) or otherwise has reasons to believe that any goods liable to confiscation or any documents or books, which in the opinion of the proper officer, may be useful or relevant to any proceedings which may be undertaken or such goods are liable to be secreted to any place, then the proper officer may authorize in writing any other officer of the State Tax to search and seize the goods, documents or books or things. Clause (4), referred to above, empowers the authorized officer to seal or break open the door of any premises where access to such premise is denied.
In the case on hand, we have not been shown anything to indicate that the proper officer had any reasons to believe that the goods stored in the godown in question are liable to confiscation. However, for the time being, we are not going into this issue. We are trying to find a way out, by which, the seal can be removed without prejudice to the rights of the department to proceed against the dealers in accordance with law.

2020 (2) TMI 497 - AUTHORITY FOR ADVANCE RULING, MAHARASHTRA
Input tax credit - GST paid on replacement of existing lift/ elevator at its own premises to the vendor registered under the Goods and Services Tax Act for manufacture, supply, installation and commissioning of lift/ elevator - Maintenance Charges collected from its Members - blocked credits under the Goods and Services Tax Act.
HELD THAT:- The lift, after erection and installation is an immovable property because it becomes a part of an immovable property i.e a building. In other words it is to be considered as an integral part of the building itself. It is not a separate part of the building. When any person speaks of such a building, he also includes the lifts as an integral part of the building, like storage water tanks, etc. - thus, Manufacture, Supply, Installation and Commissioning of Lifts/Elevators is in the nature of Works Contract activity which results in creation of an immovable property. Hence in view of the discussions and Explanation to Section 17 of the CGST Act, we are of the opinion that the applicant is not entitled to ITC of GST paid on replacement of existing Lift/Elevator, in its premises.
Thus, input tax credit not allowed - the question regarding blocked credit not required to be answered.

HELD THAT:- The question raised in the subject application, is not in relation to supply of goods or services or both being undertaken or proposed to be undertaken by the applicant.

The question raised by Applicant does not pertain to supply of goods or services or both being undertaken or proposed by them - in view of the provisions of Section 95 of the GST Act, since the supply in the subject case will not be undertaken/ is not proposed to be undertaken, by the applicant, we are of the opinion that this authority is not allowed to answer the question raised by the applicant, being out of the purview of Sec. 95 of CGST Act.
The applicant is recipient of services and not supplier of services, hence their application is not in accordance with the provisions under Section 95 of CGST ACT and is not maintainable - The application for advance ruling is rejected, as being non-maintainable.
