CGST Delhi South arrested a director for allegedly availing ₹6.53 crore in fraudulent ITC based on bogus invoices worth ₹36.28 crore. Authorities found that the credit was claimed without actual receipt of goods and used to discharge GST liability, leading to arrest under Section 69 of the CGST Act
The Delhi High Court ruled that Circular No. 3/3/2017 is legally valid, holding that the Board acted within its statutory powers under the CGST Act. The Court emphasized the presumption of validity and rejected the claim that only the Commissioner could assign functions.
The new framework mandates that proceedings under Section 74A must be initiated by officers formally designated through Circular 254/11/2025-GST. Notices issued without valid jurisdiction are void ab initio.
The High Court quashed recovery proceedings for ITC reversal, holding that mere non-deposit of tax by the supplier is insufficient without proof of collusion, fake invoices, or lack of bona fides.
The analysis highlights that Section 122 of the CGST Act lacked designated “proper officers” until Circular 254/11/2025-GST. Proceedings initiated before this assignment may be void for want of jurisdiction.
Pursuant to High Court observations and fresh investigation, GSTAT held that the developer did not gain additional ITC benefit warranting price reduction.
GSTAT held that proceedings under Section 74 could not be sustained in absence of fraud or suppression and remanded the matter for fresh determination under Section 73 by the Proper Officer.
The Court held that Section 73 requires a minimum three-month gap between show cause notice and final order. Orders passed within a shorter period were quashed as violative of natural justice.
The High Court ruled that GST authorities must mandatorily apply Circular No. 183/15/2022-GST before disallowing ITC due to return mismatches. Mechanical reversal based solely on discrepancy was held unsustainable.
The High Court ruled that GST adjudication orders must contain detailed facts and reasons. Summary notices and orders lacking particulars were set aside as legally unsustainable.
