Directors cannot be made personally liable for a company's GST dues merely by virtue of office; recovery from their personal assets is permissible only if the statutory conditions for fastening vicarious liability are satisfied, including the requirements in Section 88(3) and an opportunity to show that non-recovery from the company was not due to their gross negligence, misfeasance or breach of duty.
