Entitlement to input tax credit was reconsidered in light of subsequent statutory insertions of Sections 16(5) and 16(6); because the impugned order denied credit solely on the ground of belated availment under Section 16(4), the HC remitted the matter for fresh adjudication so the respondent must re-examine entitlement on merits leaving aside the belated-availment ground and decide after hearing the petitioner. The court granted conditional interim relief by directing the petitioner to pay amounts due for belated returns and file a reply within 30 days; on compliance and absence of other arrears the bank attachment will be lifted pending final adjudication.
