The HC held that transitional Cenvat Credit carried forward ...


HC allows transitional credit carry forward but interest payable, quashes penalty.

January 16, 2025

Case Laws     GST     HC

The HC held that transitional Cenvat Credit carried forward qualifies as "input tax credit" under the CGST Act. Interest u/s 50(3) is payable for wrongly availing and utilizing such credit. However, imposing penalty u/s 122(2)(b) read with 74(1) requires evidence of fraud or willful misstatement, which was absent as the petitioner acted under a bona fide belief. While upholding interest liability, the HC quashed the penalty recognizing lack of fraudulent intent by the petitioner, a government company. The petition was allowed in part.
