HC quashed the seizure and ancillary orders and allowed the writ petition, holding that the interstate movement of the crane for execution of a works contract did not constitute a supply of goods or services and thus attracted no IGST.

Consequently the impugned seizure was invalid and the authorities are directed to release the goods forthwith upon production of a certified copy of the order. Costs not addressed.
