Determining the tax and penalty - Vehicle transporting consignment without Original Tax Invoice - The High court analyzed the relevant provisions of the SGST Act and CGST Act. While Rule 138-A and Section 68 were cited by the respondents, the court noted that neither of these provisions explicitly requires the transporter to carry the Original Tax Invoice.

Excess amount paid directed to be refunded.
