The HC held that the dispute was substantially legal because there was no factual dispute about execution of the works. It gave binding effect under Section 103 to the appellate advance ruling that the recipient was not a local authority and that GST on the works contract services was payable at 18%.

The impugned order was quashed, and the respondent was directed to release the balance 6% GST within four weeks.
