This contravened Section 171(1) of the CGST Act, 2017. The profiteered amount is determined as Rs. 2,06,100/- u/r 133(1) of the CGST Rules 2017. The respondent is required to pass on the profiteered amount of Rs. 2,06,100/- along with 18% interest from the date of collection till payment, as per Rule 133(3)(b). Although the respondent committed an offence u/s 171(3A) by denying the rate reduction benefit, penalty cannot be imposed retrospectively as Section 171(3A) was inserted effective 01.01.2020.
