<h1>Section 158 GST: Confidentiality Rules for Public Servants with Exceptions for Legal and Administrative Disclosures</h1> Section 158 of the GST Ready Reckoner outlines the confidentiality of information handled by public servants, specifying that all details in statements, returns, accounts, or proceedings under the Act are confidential. However, exceptions allow for disclosure in certain circumstances, such as for prosecutions, implementation of the Act, service of notices, audits, inquiries into misconduct, or when required by law. Courts are restricted from requiring GST officers to produce confidential information, except in cases covered by the exceptions. These provisions ensure the protection of sensitive information while allowing necessary disclosures for legal and administrative purposes.
