Supreme Court Rejects Appeals After Massive 471-Day Filing Delay, Citing Procedural Noncompliance and Lack of Justification
SC dismissed appeals due to 471-day delay in filing, finding no satisfactory explanation. The court upheld the Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal's order, rejecting the appeals both on procedural grounds of delay and substantive merits.
The Supreme Court, through Hon'ble Justices J. B. Pardiwala and R. Mahadevan, dismissed the appeals due to a "gross delay of 471 days" in filing, which was "not satisfactorily explained." The Court found "no good reason to interfere with the impugned order dated 12-10-2023" of the Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal, Kolkata. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed both "on the ground of delay as well as on merits," and all pending applications were disposed of.
