The High Court declined to entertain writ petitions challenging an ex parte GST order, holding that an effective statutory appeal was available. The ruling reinforces that writ jurisdiction should not be invoked when alternative remedies exist.
The High Court set aside a GST assessment order after finding it was issued without the assessing officer’s signature. An unsigned order was held to be legally invalid.
The High Court quashed a tax order after finding that the show cause notice was not validly served through the GST portal. The ruling underscores that lack of effective service vitiates adjudication.
The issue was whether commissions from foreign universities attract GST as intermediary services. The court held that principal-to-principal consultancy services qualify as export, entitling refund.
The SC rejected the State’s challenge citing an unexplained 676-day delay and found no reason to interfere with the High Court’s refund order. The High Court’s direction to process the original refund claim remained effective.
The High Court held that contradictory portal communications and missing rejection orders cannot defeat a refund claim. The original refund application was ordered to be honoured with interest.
The GST portal has revamped GSTR-3B filing to improve interest calculation, ITC usage, and reporting accuracy. Taxpayers must verify auto-filled data to ensure correct compliance.
Courts have clarified that summons, audits, and investigations do not amount to initiation of proceedings under GST. The jurisdictional bar applies only once a determinative adjudicatory step like a show cause notice is issued.
The court held that appeals filed beyond the three-month period plus one-month condonable window under Section 107 cannot be entertained. The ruling reinforces strict adherence to limitation under the CGST Act.
Following the High Court’s ruling on limitation, the Supreme Court dismissed the SLP as withdrawn. The decision leaves intact the finding that delayed GST appeals are not maintainable.
