The Delhi High Court held that consultancy and recruitment support services provided to foreign universities qualify as export of services under GST. The Court ruled that incidental involvement of Indian students does not convert such services into intermediary services.
The Court observed that allegations of fraud, willful misstatement, and suppression must contain clear particulars enabling effective response by the taxpayer. The absence of reasons rendered the show cause notice and subsequent orders invalid.
Court ruled that differing interpretations on classification of services as OIDAR cannot automatically justify invocation of Section 74 unless deliberate concealment or suppression is established by the Department.
Court held that there was no direct or indirect connection between the assessee and the handwritten inquiry register relied upon by the department. Statements recorded during search proceedings also did not mention the assessee.

The ruling emphasizes that vague allegations violate principles of natural justice and deprive taxpayers of an effective opportunity to respond.

The Telangana High Court refused to interfere with a faceless income tax assessment order despite claims of medical hardship and lack of opportunity. The Court held that repeated adjournments and failure to seek video conferencing weakened the taxpayer’s natural justice argument.
The Telangana High Court set aside the appellate order rejecting the GST appeal and remanded the matter for fresh adjudication after granting an opportunity of hearing. The Court held that principles of natural justice must be followed even in GST appellate proceedings.
