HC direct appellant to file application for revocation of cancellation of GST registration within the specified time under Section 30 of the CGST Act in terms of specific procedure notified vide Notification dated 31.03.2023
Patna High Court overturns the cancellation of Nihal Akhtar’s GST registration due to lack of reasons cited, citing principles of natural justice.
Delhi High Court held that the legislative history of Section 245A of the Income Tax Act indicates that the proceedings for assessment, re-assessment and re-computation u/s. 148, prior to issuance of notice u/s. 148 of the Act, were excluded from the scope of the definition of the term ‘case’. Literal interpretation of language of section 245A is justifiable.

Delhi High Court held that the Pan Masala Packing Machines (Capacity Determination and Collection of Duty) Second Amendment Rules, 2008 coming into force from 20.10.2008 hence the amendments are not applicable to search conducted prior to effective date.
Constitutional Writ Jurisdiction of HC cannot act as an assessing officer and scrutinize facts/evidence & substitute the same with its own
Jharkhand High Court ruled that presumption under Section 24 of Prevention of Money Laundering Act can only be rebutted during trial stage
In the case being analyzed, the Delhi High Court referred to Explanation (i) to Clause (b) of Section 245A to determine whether the proceedings for assessment or reassessment had commenced for the assessment years 2012-13, 2013-14, and 2014-15. The court concluded that based on a plain reading of the explanation, no such proceedings had commenced during those years. As a result, the court upheld the decision of the Income Tax Settlement Commission to deem the petitioner’s application under Section 245C(1) invalid for those assessment years.
Jharkhand HC held that cancelled GST registration can be revoked until June 30, 2023, as per the notification issued by CBIC.
