The HC held that the petitioner's short payment of GST related to works contract services did not amount to wilful suppression of facts or fraud. Consequently, proceedings under Section 74 of the CGST/KGST Act, which apply to cases involving fraud or wilful misstatement, were inappropriate. Instead, the matter fell under Section 73, which addresses determination of tax short paid without fraudulent intent. The court concluded that any due amount from PWD to the petitioner was irrelevant to GST liability and that the petitioner was not guilty of suppression. The impugned order was accordingly recharacterized as an order under Section 73 rather than Section 74. The petitioner had already paid the determined amount, and the writ petition was disposed of on this basis.
