CESTAT ruled that N/N. 36/2021-Customs dated 19.07.2021, which amended N/N. 45/2017-Customs, cannot have retrospective effect from 30.06.2017.

The tribunal rejected Commissioner (Appeals)' interpretation based on CBIC circular citing GST Council meeting minutes. Following precedent set in InterGlobe Aviation Limited case, CESTAT held the amendment applies prospectively from 19.07.2021. Appeal allowed and impugned order set aside.
