Where exported goods are zero rated and no tax is payable, a procedural contravention of Rule 138 (expiry of an E-way bill) without evidence of intent to evade tax does not support computation or imposition of penalty under Section 129(1)(a).

The impugned APL 04 orders were quashed and the penal amount was directed to be refunded with interest within twelve weeks.
