GST liability, including interest on delayed payment, must be determined strictly under the statute, and interest arises by operation of law where the fiscal enactment so provides. In the absence of statutory power, authorities cannot waive or reduce interest, or permit filing or amendment of returns in a manner not contemplated by the GST scheme; blanket directions on penalty and limitation are likewise unsustainable.
