of <h1>Provisional Tax Attachment Rules: Petitioner Granted Right to Challenge Future Orders While Preserving Legal Contentions</h1> <h3>M/s. Jai Shri Banke Bihari Traders Versus Union of India & Ors.</h3> M/s. Jai Shri Banke Bihari Traders Versus Union of India & Ors. - TMI Issues involved: Provisional attachment of cash credit accounts u/s 83 of the CGST Act, 2017In this case, the petitioner challenged the order dated 24.08.2022, which provisionally attached the cash credit accounts u/s 83 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 (CGST Act). The petitioner argued that as per Section 83(2) of the CGST Act, the maximum period for such attachment is one year from the date of the order under Section 83(1). The respondents acknowledged that the orders cease to operate after one year. However, a fresh attachment order dated 13.12.2023 was passed, leading to the petitioner's contention that repeated attachment of accounts violates Section 83(2) and they had not received copies of the new order. The court disposed of the petition, allowing the petitioner to challenge the fresh attachment order separately, while leaving the question of the validity of repeated attachment orders under Section 83 of the CGST Act open. All rights and contentions of the parties were reserved.This judgment primarily dealt with the interpretation and application of Section 83 of the CGST Act regarding the provisional attachment of cash credit accounts. The court clarified the time limit for such attachments and addressed the concerns raised by the petitioner regarding the repeated issuance of attachment orders. The decision emphasized the importance of adhering to statutory provisions and ensuring due process in matters of provisional attachments under the CGST Act.
