Year-wise GST tax periods make composite show cause notices impermissible, requiring separate proceedings despite contrary non-jurisdictional preceden...
Assignment or transfer of leasehold rights in a GIDC industrial plot is characterised as a transfer of benefits arising from immovable property, not a taxable GST supply. GST charged on that transfer therefore lacks legal basis, and input tax credit reversal and interest premised on the assumed levy cannot stand. The blocked-credit restriction for goods or services used in construction of immovable property does not apply where no construction activity occurred. As the underlying transaction is not taxable and the blocked-credit premise fails, allegations of wrongful credit, fraud, wilful misstatement or suppression for section 74 proceedings, including consequential penalty, cannot be sustained. The adjudication and appellate demands were quashed, with refund of tax and interest directed.
