<description><![CDATA[Assessment proceedings under the U.P. GST Act were challenged on the basis that relied-upon documents were uploaded on an inaccessible portal section, preventing an effective reply and making the assessment orders ex parte in nature. The article also discusses the mandatory 10% pre-deposit under Section 107(6)(b) for filing an appeal, the taxpayer's plea of financial incapacity, and the Allahabad High Court's view that successive writ petitions seeking exemption were barred by constructive res judicata and the Henderson principle. The Supreme Court's interim order granted temporary protection against coercive recovery on a reduced deposit.]]></description>

<title>"Intended Use" Is Not "Exclusive Use": Supreme Court Reasserts Limits on Revenue Overreach in End-Use Exemptions</title>

<pubDate>Sat, 04 Apr 2026 05:18:51 +0530</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[End-use based exemption notifications conditioned on intended use cannot be narrowed by reading in requirements of exclusive or directly traceable use. Where exempted inputs are consumed in an integrated industrial process through common utilities, the inability to identify the precise downstream allocation of the input does not by itself defeat exemption, and proportionate denial based only on estimation cannot substitute for proof of actual diversion or non-compliance. Extended limitation and penalty depend on clear evidence of suppression or intent to evade, and are not attracted where procurement and use are disclosed and the dispute turns on interpretation.]]></description>

<title>COMMUNICATION UNDER GST - WHY UPLOADING MAY NOT BE ENOUGH</title>

<pubDate>Sat, 04 Apr 2026 05:18:51 +0530</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[Under GST appeal rules, the expression "communicated" in section 107 was examined to determine whether uploading a notice or adjudication order on the GST portal alone can start limitation. The article distinguishes procedural service under section 169 from effective communication for appeal purposes, and says portal upload, email, or SMS may not ensure taxpayer awareness. It stresses that communication must be meaningful, that the department is better placed to prove the date of communication when disputed, and that digital GST administration must preserve fairness, natural justice, and access to appellate remedies.]]></description>

<title>CBIC Circular 17/2026-Customs: Trade Facilitation Reforms for Courier and E-Commerce Operations Enhancing Ease of Doing Business".</title>

<pubDate>Sat, 04 Apr 2026 05:18:51 +0530</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[CBIC has introduced trade facilitation reforms for courier and e-commerce operations to streamline cross-border logistics, reduce compliance burdens, and modernise customs processing under the courier import and export framework. The reforms remove the value cap on commercial export consignments sent through courier mode and extend the reform to both e-commerce and non-e-commerce commercial exports. They also provide a simplified Return to Origin mechanism for un-cleared or unclaimed imported goods after fifteen days, and simplify re-imports of returned and rejected goods through a risk-based approach.]]></description>

<pubDate>Sat, 04 Apr 2026 05:18:51 +0530</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[GST adjudication orders are vulnerable when passed before the mandatory three-month period under section 73(2), when personal hearing and effective communication requirements under section 75(4) are not followed, and when bank attachment is issued without verifying the nature of the account or the taxpayer's funds. The commentary stresses that such defects reflect non-compliance with statutory procedure and natural justice, and that orders may be challenged through appellate or writ remedies within limitation periods.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Amendments to the Courier Imports and Exports (Electronic Declaration and Processing) Regulations, 2010 and the Courier Imports and Exports (Clearance) Regulations, 1998 introduce a structured re-export facility for uncleared imported courier consignments after 15 days, subject to the goods not being prohibited or restricted and no enforcement proceedings having begun. The reforms also omit redundant provisions, remove the earlier value threshold for certain courier procedures, and expand Form E disclosure requirements for re-import cases.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Mandatory opportunity of hearing is required before passing an adverse GST decision, and this obligation is not displaced by mere service of notices through portal upload or other communication modes under section 169. The commentary stresses that section 169 only governs effective communication, whereas section 75(4) independently requires a personal hearing where an adverse order is contemplated, reflecting the broader principle of natural justice. It also notes that the adjudicating authority must consider relevant facts and the taxpayer's submissions before issuing the order.]]></description>

<title>THE JOB WORK- THE DEEMED SUPPLY TRAP UNDER SECTION 143</title>

<description><![CDATA[Job work under section 143 of the CGST Act permits conditional tax-free movement of inputs and capital goods from a principal to a job worker, subject to prescribed return timelines. Inputs must be returned or supplied directly from the job worker's premises within one year, and capital goods within three years. The principal is responsible for maintaining accounts and tracking delivery challans. If the one-year limit is breached, the deeming provision retrospectively treats the movement as a supply, re-characterises the delivery challan as a tax invoice, and may attract IGST, interest, and penalties.]]></description>

<title>Beyond Labels: Rethinking Slump Sale and 'Going Concern' in Business Succession</title>

<description><![CDATA[A slump sale is a transfer of an undertaking as a whole for lump sum consideration without separate valuation of individual assets and liabilities, with capital gains governed by section 50B. A transfer described as a "going concern" does not automatically qualify as a slump sale, because the controlling test is the substance of the transaction-what is transferred, how it is transferred, and what is retained. In succession settings, section 170 may treat the transferee as a successor for tax purposes.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Finalization of GST books for March-April 2026 requires a structured review of vendor onboarding, input tax credit, outward supply records, and tax-rate changes in light of GST 2.0. Special attention is needed for vendors registered under the new three-day registration framework, including KYC validation and, where appropriate, physical verification of premises. Credit notes, discounts, HSN classification, GSTR-2B reconciliation, import and reverse charge liabilities, place of supply positions, state-wise reporting, income tax reconciliation, and inverted duty structure refunds must also be reviewed.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Ultra-processed packaged foods characterised by high levels of salt, oil, sugar and additives (SOSA) are described as industrially manufactured products designed for convenience, long shelf life and hyper-palatability rather than nutritional integrity. High consumption is linked with obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, certain cancers, nutritional displacement and possible gut and metabolic effects. The regulatory framework emphasises front-of-pack labelling, control of additives and ingredients, reformulation, trans fat limits and consumer awareness, while guidance favours limiting ultra-processed foods and prioritising fresh, minimally processed foods.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Imported pre-packaged consumer goods must comply with the Legal Metrology (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 2011 by carrying mandatory declarations on the principal display panel, and the importer is treated as the manufacturer for compliance purposes. The commentary identifies widespread non-compliance through missing declarations, improper labelling, absence of country-of-origin details, and non-standard units, while noting enforcement gaps at customs ports and limited coordination between Customs and the Legal Metrology Department. It recommends stronger system integration, pre-clearance checks, dedicated port-level enforcement, stricter penalties, and tighter regulation of e-commerce imports.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Tax authorities are intensifying compliance scrutiny of restaurants and broader B2C businesses through data triangulation across POS systems, aggregator platforms, utility usage, banking transactions, GST filings and income-tax returns. The commentary identifies common irregularities such as bill deletion or modification, non-reporting of banquet bookings, fake purchase bills, under-reporting of aggregator sales, and mismatches between input and output data, and recommends transparent reporting, advance reconciliation and close monitoring of cash flows and specified financial transactions.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The Competition Act, 2002 regulates combinations-mergers, acquisitions and amalgamations-through a suspensory notification regime administered by the Competition Commission of India. A transaction is notifiable when the prescribed asset, turnover or deal value thresholds are met, subject to de minimis and other exemptions.

<title>LIMITATION PERIOD CANNOT DEFEAT REFUND OF STATUTORY PRE-DEPOSIT UNDER GST</title>

<description><![CDATA[Refund of statutory pre-deposit under GST cannot be denied merely on the ground that the refund application was filed beyond the two-year period mentioned in Section 54 of the CGST Act. Where an assessee deposits the mandatory pre-deposit for maintaining an appeal and the appellate authority allows the appeal, the pre-deposit becomes refundable as a substantive right and the department cannot retain it without authority of law. The limitation provision must be read with Article 265, the legislative use of "may", and the absence of unjust enrichment where the amount was paid from the assessee's own funds.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Input tax credit under GST cannot be denied to a bona fide recipient merely because the supplier later defaults in payment of tax or has its registration cancelled at a later stage, where the purchaser has otherwise complied with the conditions under Section 16(2) and the transaction is not collusive or fraudulent. The Karnataka High Court treated the buyer's genuine transaction as protected from disallowance under Section 16(2)(c), and read that provision down so that it applies only where the transaction is not bona fide or is designed to defraud revenue.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Symbolic possession under SARFAESI is a paper possession of secured property without physical control, but the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code requires the Interim Resolution Professional to take actual control and custody of the corporate debtor's assets on commencement of CIRP. The article examines whether, in a section 10 CIRP, a corporate debtor may hand over only symbolic possession to the Interim Resolution Professional. Referring to the Orion Water Treatment Private Limited case, it notes that the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal found no legal basis for symbolic possession in CIRP and upheld actual handover of assets, records, and cooperation.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Due diligence in business transfers under the Indian legal framework is a structured risk-assessment and compliance review undertaken before mergers, acquisitions, slump sales, asset purchases, share transfers, and business transfer arrangements. It examines legal, financial, operational, tax, regulatory, labour, environmental, intellectual property, property, and insurance issues so that valuation, transaction structure, representations and warranties, indemnities, and post-closing obligations are properly informed. Buyer's due diligence is exhaustive and risk-focused, while seller's due diligence is used to identify red flags, regularise compliance gaps, prepare disclosures, and reduce negotiation friction.]]></description>

The article highlights that personal hearing is mandatory in adverse orders, adjournments are limited, and the adjudication demand cannot exceed the show cause notice. It also explains that interest should be quantified in the show cause notice, while the Allahabad High Court is cited for holding that section 75(9) cannot cure failure to quantify interest at the notice stage.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Advance Authorisation under the Foreign Trade Policy 2023 permits duty-free import of inputs for manufacture of export goods, subject to strict end-use, export obligation, and value addition requirements. The scheme may be issued on the basis of SION, self-declaration, Norms Committee fixation, or the Self Ratification Scheme, and is available mainly to manufacturer exporters and merchant exporters linked with supporting manufacturers. It grants exemption from major customs and trade-related levies, incorporates pre-import and actual user conditions, allows domestic sourcing through Advance Release Order or Invalidation Letter, and requires export obligation fulfilment within the prescribed period, with regularisation and EODC closure procedures.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[An approved resolution plan under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code can extinguish pre-approval GST liabilities because IBC prevails over inconsistent tax law and operates with a moratorium during CIRP. Creditors, including GST authorities, must file claims within the insolvency process, and liabilities not provided for in the resolution framework cannot ordinarily be revived later. Under the clean slate doctrine, an approved resolution plan binds all stakeholders, including government authorities, and bars fresh demands for pre-resolution liabilities.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Arbitration awards arising from construction and infrastructure contracts must be analysed component-wise for GST purposes, because different claims within the same award may have different tax consequences. Amounts awarded for additional work, price escalation, or upward revision of contract value retain the character of consideration for supply and are liable to GST, while amounts awarded as compensation for breach of contract, liquidated damages, loss, delay, or reimbursement of damage do not constitute consideration for supply and fall outside GST. The timing of payment does not by itself exclude taxability where the award revises contract value upward under the transitional framework.]]></description>

It further states that a proper show cause notice, personal hearing, and compliance with seizure timelines are mandatory procedural safeguards that cannot be bypassed through airport waiver forms.]]></description>
