Employee recoveries, input tax credit and notice pay recovery under GST: AAR distinguishes taxable supplies from non-taxable perquisites and penalties...
CESTAT set aside customs penalties under Sections 112(a) and 114AA because the revenue failed to prove the alleged collusion and evasion scheme. The Tribunal followed its earlier orders in the appellant's own case and in identical matters, noting that the alleged fake certificates of origin had not been investigated or established through the Malaysian authorities. It also found that the electronic documents relied upon against the appellant were inadmissible in evidence. As the foundational allegations were not proved, the penalty basis failed and no penal liability survived.
