Electronic credit already recovered from a taxpayer's electronic credit ledger may be adjusted against the mandatory GST appellate pre-deposit where the recovered balance exceeds the required pre-deposit and the taxpayer seeks adjustment rather than refund. On that basis, dismissal of the GST appeal for non-payment of pre-deposit was quashed and the appeal restored for merits determination. The adjustment was permitted on the particular facts, with all merits contentions left open and without precedential effect.
