Political contribution deductions require assessee-specific proof before cash-back allegations can justify disallowance or unexplained-money additions...
The HC held that the petitioner's deposits in the Electronic Cash Ledger for the GST liability from April to December 2019 are valid and must be appropriated to discharge the tax liability despite the petitioner's failure to file returns due to liquidation proceedings. The Court noted that the petitioner transferred the requisite amounts timely under Section 49 of the GST enactments. The Board's subsequent clarification, which suggested fresh registration and refund applications for liquidators, was deemed a procedural facilitation and not a substantive bar to appropriation of already paid amounts. Consequently, the impugned order denying appropriation was quashed, and the petition was allowed, granting relief to the petitioner by recognizing the Electronic Cash Ledger payments as sufficient discharge of GST liability with interest and penalty.
