Issues:

Muralidhar and Justice Talwant Singh, heard a matter where the learned ASG informed the court about two meetings held with the Petitioners' counsel to address and resolve raised issues. The ASG mentioned that consensus was achieved on certain matters, while on others, the Department intended to submit a response via affidavit. Consequently, the Respondents were directed to file an affidavit within two weeks, detailing the resolved and unresolved issues, with a copy to the Petitioners for a response before the next hearing. Moreover, the Respondents were instructed to present data/logs on complaints concerning the GST system's functionality over the past three months and the methods employed to address them. This data was deemed crucial to assess the effectiveness of the solutions proposed by the Respondents. The court emphasized that where consensus existed between the parties, the Respondents should implement the agreed changes promptly, without awaiting further court directives, underscoring the importance of proactive resolution. The case was scheduled for the next hearing on 18th September 2019, with an order for Dasti to be issued to the parties under the Court Master's signature. The judgment reflected a collaborative approach to dispute resolution, encouraging parties to work towards consensus and prompt implementation of agreed-upon solutions, thereby streamlining the judicial process and fostering effective problem-solving in the realm of GST system functionality.
