Refund Rejection Overturned: Competent Authority Directed to Verify Docs & Issue Refund Orders Within 4 Weeks.
The HC set aside the order dated 24.02.2022, which rejected the refund application due to unavailable records, and remitted the matter to the competent authority. The petitioner provided original documents for verification. The court directed the competent authority to issue consequential orders regarding the refund within four weeks, disposing of the petition.
Issues involved: The issues involved in this case are the impugned order dated 27.11.2011 regarding default assessment of tax and interest, rejection of refund application by order dated 24.02.2022, and the non-availability of certain records leading to the rejection.
Impugned Order dated 27.11.2011: The petitioner challenged the order dated 27.11.2011, which framed a default assessment of tax and interest, finding zero amount due to the petitioner. Subsequently, the Additional Commissioner confirmed the rejection of the refund application based on the unavailability of the assessment order dated 23.08.2012 on the DVAT Portal. However, the petitioner had the original order available for verification, which was submitted to the competent authority.
Rejection of Refund Application - Order dated 24.02.2022: The rejection of the refund application by the order dated 24.02.2022 was based on the non-availability of certain records. The petitioner appeared before the competent authority with the original documents, including the certified copy of the order and original F-Forms, which were duly verified. As a result, the impugned order was set aside, and the matter was remitted to the competent authority for further consideration.
Remittal and Consequential Orders: The High Court set aside the order dated 24.02.2022 and remitted the matter to the competent authority for passing consequential orders regarding the refund application of the petitioner.
