A High Court held that the six-month time limit for filing a rectification application under Notification No. 22/2024 is procedural and cannot defeat a substantive input tax credit benefit recognised by the retrospective insertion of Sections 16(5) and 16(6). On that basis, rejection of the application as time-barred was not sustained, and the matter was restored for fresh consideration on merits after notice.
