<h1>Court orders preliminary tax liability issue to be decided before assessment order related to 'extended warranty' & 'logistic charges'.</h1> <h3>Kamal & Co. Versus The State of Rajasthan and others</h3> Kamal & Co. Versus The State of Rajasthan and others - TMI Issues:Challenge to reopening of assessment order regarding 'extended warranty' and 'logistic charges' for tax liability.Analysis:The petitioner filed a writ petition challenging the notices issued by the Assistant Commissioner of Commercial Taxes for reopening the assessment order related to 'extended warranty' and 'logistic charges'. The petitioner argued that the turnover concerning these charges is not taxable, thus the notices lack jurisdiction. The court considered the submissions and highlighted that the objection regarding tax liability should be raised initially before the same authority that issued the notice. The court acknowledged the petitioner's concern that the assessing officer might not treat it as a preliminary issue and decide it along with the main case. Therefore, the court directed the concerned authority to hear and decide this question as a preliminary issue before making any final decision on the matter.The court disposed of the writ petition and instructed that if the petitioner raises the objection before the concerned authority, it should be heard and decided as a preliminary issue before any final order is passed based on the notices. The court clarified that if an adverse order is given, the petitioner can challenge it before the appropriate forum as per the law. Additionally, the stay application filed by the petitioner was also disposed of in the judgment.
