The AT upheld the DGAP's finding that the respondent failed to pass on a commensurate reduction in GST on restaurant services, concluding the statutory rebuttable presumption under s.171 CGST Act was not discharged and that the investigating authority permissibly examined all products supplied by the registered person.
