Court Orders Release of GST-Seized Goods u/s 129(3) After Petitioner Proves Ownership Through Valid Invoice Documentation.

January 23, 2025

Case Laws     GST     HC

HC examined validity of detention and seizure notice under GST Act Section 129(3). Referring to government circular dated 31-12-2018 defining ownership of goods through accompanying documents, court found petitioner was legitimate consignee per invoice for goods transported in truck CG 10 AJ 1477. Given established ownership through proper documentation, HC directed release of seized goods and vehicle to petitioner's interim custody subject to fulfillment of prescribed conditions. Court's ruling emphasized importance of documentary evidence in establishing goods ownership for GST detention cases, affirming petitioner's right to custody based on proper invoice documentation.
