The HC held that the assignment of leasehold rights by the petitioner constitutes a transfer of benefits arising from immovable property, which is excluded from the scope of supply under Section 7(1)(a) read with Schedule 2 and Schedule 3 of the State GST Act, 2017. Consequently, such a transaction is not subject to GST levy under Section 9. The court quashed and set aside the impugned order issued under Section 73, the Form GST DRC-07 dated 05.02.2025, and the show-cause notice FORM GST DRC-01 dated 26.07.2024. The petition was allowed, confirming that GST cannot be imposed on the assignment of leasehold rights in the circumstances presented.
