Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
HC set aside the order disallowing Input Tax Credit (ITC) u/s 17(5) of GST Act. The revenue authorities failed to specify which clause u/s 17(5) was invoked for ITC disallowance. The court directed authorities to issue fresh notice clearly indicating the applicable clause u/s 17(5), provide reasonable hearing opportunity to the assessee, and proceed according to law. The matter was remanded for fresh consideration with specific instructions to follow proper procedure in determining ITC eligibility. The petition was disposed of with these directions.
