Arbitrary tax demand quashed; Taxpayer relief on limitations upheld.

December 14, 2024

Case Laws     GST     HC

The High Court allowed the writ petition by quashing the appellate order dated June 28, 2024, due to procedural irregularities and arbitrary actions in the demand of tax, interest, and penalties u/ss 16(2)(c) and 73 of the GST Act. The Court held that provisions on limitation should be interpreted liberally where genuine hardships are demonstrated, considering judicial precedents supporting such relief. The Court found the petitioner's case meritorious in light of the procedural irregularities and arbitrary nature of the actions taken by the authorities.
