The anti-profiteering investigation calculated profiteering due to enhanced ITC under GST. As the developer passed on the full benefit, including disputed sums with interest, the Tribunal disposed of the proceedings.
The Tribunal held that early GST filing errors could be inadvertent due to manual systems and remanded the matter for fresh adjudication.

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 compendium explains the legal structure, jurisdiction, and appeal process of GSTAT as it becomes operational from 2026. It also highlights procedural burdens that may affect effective access to justice.
The court declined to keep the writ pending once the appellate forum became functional, directing the taxpayer to pursue the statutory appeal. It reaffirmed that disputes must move to GSTAT when an effective remedy is available.
