Authentication of paper assessment orders upheld, while qualifying repairs, consumables and vendor advance write-offs remain deductible business claim...
The applicant's advance ruling application seeking nil rate of GST on stamp duty and registration fees paid for registering a mining lease deed is inadmissible. The matter is already under audit proceedings initiated by the Audit Commissionerate demanding GST payment. As per Section 98(2) of the CGST Act, an advance ruling cannot be sought on issues already pending in audit. The Madras High Court judgment in ABT Limited case upheld that during GST audit u/s 65, if tax non-payment or wrong ITC utilization is found, action u/ss 73 or 74 can be initiated u/s 65(7). Since the audit is a valid proceeding covered u/s 98(2), the applicant's appeal against the advance ruling is liable to be rejected.
