Case Laws GST HC

Doctrine of promissory estoppel - Benefit under incentive Scheme - Scenarios of new Acts replacing the VAT Act, ensuring entitlement despite the GST regime. - The High court found that the petitioner fulfilled conditions of the scheme and was entitled to benefits. Past disbursements under the scheme, including GST components, supported this entitlement. The respondent's refusal to disburse the rest of the amount was unjustified. - Clause 19.2 of the scheme was interpreted to cover scenarios where the VAT Act is replaced by any other Act, ensuring continued entitlement despite changes in taxation regimes. The court rejected the respondent's argument that the GST Act replaced multiple statutes, holding that only the VAT Act was specifically mentioned in Clause 19.2.
