State retention of taxes on export transactions held beyond jurisdiction; refund restored and amounts transferred to Central IGST authority
Whether State tax authorities had jurisdiction to retain tax on export transactions and reject a refund claim: the HC applied existing precedent holding that CGST/SGST authorities lack jurisdiction to retain taxes attributable to exports and that such amounts fall to be transferred to the Central Government and dealt with under the IGST framework. Reasoning rested on allocation of fiscal competence and statutory scheme under the IGST Act. Outcome: the State order rejecting the refund was set aside, the refund application restored and directed to be transferred to the Assistant Commissioner (Central Taxes) for decision; deposited tax with statutory interest to be transferred to the Central authority.
Issues involved: Jurisdiction of State Authority to levy tax on export of service under CGST and MGST Acts.
Summary: The High Court of Bombay, in a Co-ordinate Bench order, addressed the issue of jurisdiction of State Authorities to levy tax on export of service, which the Petitioner argued falls under the purview of IGST Tax exclusively under Central Authorities. Referring to previous decisions, the Court held that export of service comes under the IGST Act, and Central Authorities have jurisdiction over such transactions. The Petitioner had deposited tax with CGST/MGST authorities, which was later found to be outside their jurisdiction. The Court directed the State authorities to transfer the tax amount along with interest to the Assistant Commissioner of Central Tax under the IGST Act. The Deputy Commissioner's rejection of the refund application was set aside, and the application was to be decided by the Assistant Commissioner within six weeks, in line with the Court's decision. All contentions on the refund application and related issues were kept open. The petitions were disposed of with no costs, and interim applications were also disposed of. Parties were instructed to act on the authenticated copy of the order.
