HC dismisses input tax credit (ITC) claim, holding that the petitioner cannot claim ITC when the supplier failed to deposit mandatory tax under Section 16(2)(c). Despite various precedents cited, the court emphasized the clear statutory requirement of actual tax payment by the supplier to the government. The provision mandates that ITC eligibility is contingent upon the supplier's tax compliance, and in this case, Shree Radhey International neither deposited the tax nor maintained valid registration. The court rejected the petitioner's arguments and upheld the taxing authorities' decision, thereby dismissing the petition without any further interference.
