This analysis examines how GST transformed India’s indirect tax regime while continuing to face compliance, technological, and interpretational challenges. It highlights both the achievements and unresolved issues shaping GST’s future.
Explains how Section 16(2)(c) links ITC eligibility to supplier tax payment, causing hardship for bona fide taxpayers even when invoices, payments, and goods are genuine.
The case examined whether purchase tax liability could be enforced when system defects prevented payment. The court held that software issues causing revenue-neutral outcomes made the demand unsustainable.
The Court held that input tax credit cannot be restricted to the month of invoice when business practices require later accounting. It ruled that such restriction defeats the objective of avoiding cascading taxation.
The Court held that input tax credit cannot be denied solely because the selling dealer failed to deposit tax without examining the genuineness of transactions. The matter was remanded for reconsideration of whether the assessee discharged its burden of proof.
The tribunal ruled that state VAT provisions do not prevail over the Insolvency Code. Tax dues were rightly treated as operational debt under the resolution plan.
The case addressed denial of refund of VAT pre-deposit made through ITC. The Court held that Section 142(6) mandates cash refund and overrides conflicting departmental circulars, ensuring taxpayer relief.
The court stayed FIR proceedings for non-payment of VAT dues due to significant delay in filing. It held that delayed criminal action weakens prosecution and cannot be sustained mechanically.
The case addressed whether stock discrepancies could be attributed to a sister concern. The Court held that absence of supporting evidence justified the VAT demand and confirmed the assessment.
ITAT Pune held that creation of artificial intangible asset i.e. goodwill in intra-group merger is merely a colourable transaction out between the Holding Company and the subsidiary company. Accordingly, depreciation claimed thereon deserves to be disallowed.
