SVLDRS - Rejection of declaration under the Sabka Vishwas (Legacy Dispute Resolution) Scheme, 2019 - In the present facts, it is found that the learned counsel for the petitioner has not been able to demonstrate and/or there is nothing on record to indicate that the duty liability is admitted by the petitioner. On the contrary, though the amount is quantified by the letter dated August 29, 2019, the petitioner goes ahead and addresses the e-mail dated November 16, 2019 stating that the matter in respect of reversal of credit of ₹ 75 lakhs is under process and that the petitioner will revert back to the respondents shortly. Further, it is mentioned in the said e-mail that the petitioner attached the details of the credit taken within time and the details of credit taken more than 365 days, meaning thereby that even as late as on November 16, 2019, much after the cut-off date, the petitioner still does not admit its liability to pay the duty. - HC
