Appellate Tribunal rules in favor of appellant regarding denial of deduction for 'additional discount'
The Appellate Tribunal CESTAT, New Delhi, in 2005, ruled in favor of the appellant, holding that the denial of deduction of 'additional discount' due to non-disclosure was not justified. The tribunal emphasized that the discount was indicated in the invoice at the time of sale, making non-disclosure irrelevant. It was noted that negotiated prices for goods could result in varying discounts, which should not be a basis for denial. The requirement for pre-deposit was waived, and recovery was stayed pending appeal disposal.
The dispute is about deduction of discount. Authorities denied deduction of 'additional discount' due to non-disclosure of criteria and extent. Counsel argued that discount is indicated in the invoice at the time of sale, so non-disclosure is not an issue. Prices are negotiated for goods, leading to varying discounts. Variation in discount amount is not a valid reason to deny deduction. Requirement for pre-deposit is waived, and recovery is stayed pending appeal disposal. (Judgement by Appellate Tribunal CESTAT, New Delhi, 2005)
