Case Laws     GST

February 6, 2024

Levy of penalty at the rate of 200% of the tax (GST) payable - Detention of escalator machine (JCB) - JCB machine was returning from work - The High Court observed that, there was a valid e-way bill in support of the transportation. It is only because of non-production of the delivery challan that the penalty has been assessed and imposed. Though possession of all document in support of transportation is the fundamental requirement of law, but as it appears that, the petitioner did not have the intention to evade tax , accordingly, imposition of penalty at the rate of 200% of the tax payable appears to be highly disproportionate and not in accordance with the provisions of law. - HC directed the adjudicating authority to re-adjudicate the issue.
