GST Appeal Debate: Proper Category Under 'Sabka Vikas' Scheme - Litigation vs. Arrears Clarification Needed A discussion on a forum revolves around the categorization of a GST-related appeal under the 'Sabka Vikas' scheme. The issue arises from a department's insistence on filing the application under the 'Arrears' category, despite the appeal being filed within the allowed period.
