The HC held that the powers under Rule 86A of the CGST Rules may be exercised only in respect of input tax credit reflected in the Electronic Credit Ledger on the date of making and serving the impugned blocking order. Applying precedent, the court quashed and set aside the impugned order insofar as it exceeded that scope and directed the Respondents to restore to the Petitioner the blocked input tax credit equivalent to amounts recovered by the Respondents for June, July and August 2025 that are not otherwise set aside. The directive mandates restoration of ledger credit while preserving any recoveries that remain valid.
