Exports Triumph: Court Upholds Input Tax Credit Refund for Zero-Rated Sales Despite Time Limits.

December 6, 2024

Case Laws     VAT / Sales Tax     HC

The High Court dismissed the Revenue's petition challenging the order of the Single Judge. The court held that u/s 18(3) of the Tamil Nadu Value Added Tax Act, 2006, and Rule 11(2) of the Tamil Nadu Value Added Tax Rules, 2007, the Respondent's refund claims for Input Tax Credit on zero-rated sales were filed beyond the prescribed 180-day period from the date of accrual of such Input Tax Credit. However, the court emphasized that export incentives in the form of refund of Input Tax Credit should not be denied as exports bring precious foreign exchange to the country. The statutory restrictions were put in place only after 2010 through amendments to Section 18(3) of the Act and Rule 11(2) of the Rules. Therefore, the Respondent's refund claims filed prior to the amendments were valid.
