HC held that the 60-day period under Section 62(2) of GST Act is directory, not mandatory. The petitioner failed to file returns for October 2018 to March 2019 within prescribed time limit, resulting in a best judgment assessment order. The court determined that if an assessee demonstrates valid reasons beyond their control for delay, they can file returns after paying applicable interest and penalties.
