Case Law Details
Vimal Yashwantgiri Goswami Vs State of Gujarat (Gujarat High Court)
The orders of provisional attachment under challenge could be said to have been outlived statutory right considering the fact that the orders impugned are dated 23.07.2019 and it would cease to operate on expiry of period of one year as prescribed under Section-83.
The attention of this Court is drawn to the draft amendment, whereby, the writ-applicant has referred to the communication dated 28.07.2020 issued by the respondent no.5 as received from the respondent no.2, who seems to have passed the fresh order of attachment. On bare perusal of the said order dated 24.07.2020 produced at Annexure-R and the order dated 27.07.2020 produced at Annexure-Q, even those orders have outlived their statutory life in view of Section-83 of the CGST Act as well as Rule-86A(3) of the CGST Rules, 2017.
We finds that, as on date nothing further is required to be adjudicated. Thus, as on date, it could be said that there are no orders of attachment of all the four current accounts running in the name of writ-applicant maintained with the respective banks as well as there is no attachment of the Input Tax Credit.
