The Madras High Court held that Section 125 cannot be invoked where the GST law specifically provides for late fee under Section 47 for non-filing defaults. The ruling clarifies that general penalty provisions operate only in the absence of a specific penalty mechanism.
The Court directed authorities to consider restoration of GST registration where the taxpayer undertook to furnish pending returns and pay tax, interest, penalty, and late fees in accordance with Rule 22(4).
The Court held that once the GST Appellate Tribunal becomes operational, taxpayers must ordinarily pursue the statutory appellate remedy. The writ petition challenging a refund-related appellate order was dismissed with liberty to approach GSTAT.
The Court held that a single show cause notice spanning different assessment years is legally unsustainable. Authorities were permitted to initiate fresh proceedings through separate notices for each financial year.
The Court refused to entertain a writ petition challenging a GST assessment order after the limitation period for filing a statutory appeal had lapsed. It held that writ jurisdiction cannot be used to bypass prescribed appellate remedies.
The Supreme Court declined to interfere with the High Court’s order rejecting anticipatory bail in a GST matter involving liability below ₹5 crore. The ruling reaffirmed that offences falling below the statutory threshold are treated as non-cognizable and bailable under Section 132 of the CGST Act.
The Chhattisgarh High Court held that the alleged GST offence, involving liability below Rs. 5 crore, was non-cognizable under the GST framework. The applicant’s request for pre-arrest protection was accordingly dismissed.
The article explains that where recipients never avail ITC on rejected goods, no reversal is required upon issuance of credit notes under Section 34. Proper documentation can support GST compliance during audits and departmental proceedings.
