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.
The High Court ruled that buyers are not legally required to reverse ITC merely due to seller-issued discount credit notes. Rectification of GST returns was allowed where tax paid exceeded proposed reversal and no revenue loss occurred.
Karnataka High Court held that refund of accumulated Input Tax Credit in case where the input and output tax are the same is allowed. Accordingly, order is liable to be set aside and refund claim deserved to be allowed.
The Court partly allowed the writ petition, noting that the petitioners claim was found genuine upon verification. Authorities were directed to reconsider restoration of GST registration from the original date.
The High Court dismissed the petition challenging GST assessment orders due to unexplained delay. It held that lack of timely action bars relief under writ jurisdiction.
