Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
The High Court found a violation of natural justice as the petitioner was not given a fair chance to contest a tax demand due to a mismatch between GSTR 3B return and GSTR 1 statement. The tax liability arose from this discrepancy. The petitioner's counsel provided evidence of GST computation errors. The court noted the tax proposal was confirmed due to lack of response to show cause notice. To ensure justice, the court set aside the order and remanded the matter for reconsideration. The petitioner can reply to the notice within two weeks. The petition was disposed of by remand.
