Case Laws GST HC

HC granted ad-interim relief to petitioners challenging retrospective application of penalty under Section 122(1A). The court found a prima facie case exists, noting the statutory provision was enacted on 1 January 2021 but sought to impose penalties for period prior to enforcement (July 2017 to December 2020). The court's interim order suggests substantial merit in petitioners' arguments, referencing a prior judicial precedent. Balance of convenience favors petitioners, indicating potential procedural irregularity in retrospective penalty imposition. Petition disposed with interim relief granted.
