Case Laws Benami Property
Benami Transactions: Proof of Consideration, Fund Routing and Beneficial Ownership under Section 2(9...
Show AI Summary
Benami fund routing requires proof of consideration, holding and benefit; formal invoices alone may not establish genuine commercial credits.
Benami character under Section 2(9)(A) depends on the real relationship between the property holder, provider of consideration and intended beneficiary. Cash deposits routed through entities linked to an alleged benamidar and transferred by RTGS may support an inference of beneficial ownership when formal invoices, ledgers and tax records lack independent commercial corroboration. Bank funds and proceeds fall within the broad concept of property. Sworn statements, banking records and surrounding circumstances must be assessed together; the party alleging benami bears the initial burden, though evidentiary burdens may shift on proved facts.
Case Laws GST
Wrong-Head GST Payment and the Distinction Between Appropriation and Refund Under Sections 19 and 77
Show AI Summary
Wrong-head GST payments require appropriation of timely discharged liability, while supply-characterisation errors follow the statutory refund framework.
Wrong-head GST payment must be distinguished from a substantive error in classifying a supply as inter-State or intra-State. Sections 19 and 77 address supplies subsequently held to have a different character and do not automatically govern a mere allocation error where the supply classification and aggregate tax liability are undisputed. Where the full aggregate liability was remitted within time under an incorrect tax head, correction may occur through appropriation against the correct heads rather than a second payment followed by a refund claim.
Case Laws GST
Condonation of Delay in GST Appeals under Section 107: Statutory Limits and Writ Jurisdiction
Show AI Summary
GST appeal limitation strictly confines statutory condonation; exceptional writ review may address defective communication and lost merits hearings.
Section 107 requires a GST appeal within three months from communication of the order and permits condonation only for a further one-month period on sufficient cause. This is a statutory outer limit on the Appellate Authority, which cannot be enlarged through Section 5 of the Limitation Act. Communication through the portal, post or other recognised modes may require factual scrutiny where effective access to the complete order is disputed. Article 226 may exceptionally examine manifest injustice arising from defective communication, prompt action after knowledge, absence of merits adjudication and other credible circumstances, without enlarging the Appellate Authority's statutory jurisdiction.
Case Laws Income Tax
Validity of Scrutiny Notice under Section 143(2) and Non-Conformity with CBDT-Prescribed Formats
Show AI Summary
Scrutiny notice validity turns on statutory compliance and prejudice, not omission of an administrative scrutiny classification.
Validity of a scrutiny notice under section 143(2) depends on statutory compliance, not merely on use of a prescribed administrative format. A notice remains effective where it is issued by a competent authority, timely served, identifies the taxpayer and assessment year, conveys scrutiny, and affords an opportunity to support the return. Section 292B may cure formal defects where the notice substantively conforms to the Act and no actual prejudice is established. This issue is distinct from the restriction that limited-scrutiny inquiries cannot be expanded without prescribed conversion safeguards.
Case Laws Income Tax
Article 8 of the India-UK DTAA and Taxability of Ground Handling and Engineering Service Receipts
Show AI Summary
Article 8 treaty protection excludes independent third-party ground handling and engineering receipts lacking a direct transportation nexus.
Article 8 of the India-UK DTAA confines protection to profits derived from treaty-defined international aircraft operations and qualifying participation in air-transport pools. Engineering and ground-handling services supplied to other airlines are independently organised commercial services where they lack a direct nexus to the enterprise's own international transportation. A qualifying pool requires substantive evidence of its legal and commercial structure, including reciprocal arrangements and settlement mechanisms; industry arrangements or aviation-sector relevance alone are insufficient.
Case Laws GST
Cancellation of GST Registration for Continuous Non-Filing of Returns under Section 29 and Rule 22
Show AI Summary
GST registration cancellation for return default remains reversible only through complete, time-bound filing and payment compliance.
GST registration may be cancelled for continuous non-filing of returns, but cancellation does not discharge pre-cancellation tax liabilities. Before cancellation, Rule 22(4) requires proceedings to be dropped where the taxpayer files all pending returns and pays tax, interest and late fee. Post-cancellation revocation under Rule 23 is a separate mechanism requiring complete filing and payment compliance within the applicable time limits. Conditional restoration may be appropriate where liabilities are fully regularised, while absence of fraud does not excuse default or replace statutory compliance.
Case Laws IBC

Show AI Summary
Resolution-plan finality extinguishes unresolved operational-creditor proceedings unless the plan expressly preserves liability and payment rights.
Finality of an approved resolution plan fixes the treatment of corporate-debtor liabilities and binds creditors within the corporate insolvency resolution process. A disputed or unadjudicated right to payment may be submitted as a claim during CIRP, but does not independently preserve civil or arbitral proceedings after plan approval. Where the final claims list and the plan provide for discharge of pre-effective-date liabilities and extinguishment of related proceedings, unresolved operational-creditor claims survive only if the plan expressly preserves them through a defined payment or reservation mechanism.
Case Laws Customs
Interest on Refund of Amounts Deposited under Protest during Customs Investigation
Show AI Summary
Investigation deposits: refund interest may differ from statutory appellate pre-deposit interest when the underlying demand fails.
Interest on the refund of amounts deposited under protest during a customs investigation depends on the legal character of the payment, rather than its later appropriation towards a differential-duty demand. An amount paid pending investigation does not become a statutory appellate pre-deposit merely because part of the overall payment is treated as a pre-deposit for appeal purposes. The rate fixed at 6% for Section 129EE is confined to amounts deposited under Section 129E, while an investigation deposit requires assessment under the applicable refund framework and binding jurisdictional precedent.
Case Laws Indian Laws
Admitted Cheque Signature and Presumption of Legally Enforceable Debt under Sections 118 and 139 of ...
Show AI Summary
Admitted cheque signatures trigger presumptions of consideration and enforceable debt, requiring evidence-based probable defences in dishonour proceedings.
Once execution of a cheque is admitted or proved, consideration must be presumed and the holder must be presumed to have received the cheque towards discharge, wholly or partly, of a legally enforceable debt or other liability. The drawer may rebut these presumptions on a preponderance of probabilities, but the defence must have a factual foundation. Bare denials, unsupported misuse allegations, and blank-cheque or security-cheque assertions ordinarily do not displace the presumptions. Financial capacity becomes material only upon a credible, specific, and evidence-based challenge.

Show AI Summary
Bluetooth headset classification turns on active wireless network communication, not audio form, when determining principal function and essential character.
Bluetooth-enabled personal audio devices are classified by objective technical function rather than wearable form, product label, audio output or microphone. Heading 8517 applies where Bluetooth capability makes the device an active wireless-network apparatus that receives, converts and transmits voice or data; heading 8518 covers ordinary headphones or earphones carrying only audio signals. Classification begins with the heading terms and relevant notes, with essential character and principal function applied only through the sequential General Rules where competing headings remain.
Case Laws Income Tax
Enhanced Tax Rate Under Section 115BBE for Financial Year 2016-17: Classification of Unexplained Inc...
Show AI Summary
Unexplained-income taxation requires valid deeming classification, while enhanced special rates apply prospectively under the stated effective-date framework.
Section 115BBE applies only where income is validly assessed under the deeming provisions for unexplained income; a surrender, disclosure or addition alone is insufficient. The assessing authority must identify the relevant provision and reject the explanation of nature and source where required. The special computation denies deductions, allowances and loss set-off against qualifying income. The Rajasthan High Court treated the enhanced rate introduced with effect from 1 April 2017 as prospective, preserving the earlier rate for financial year 2016-17. Penalty under section 271AAC depends on a valid section 115BBE determination.
Case Laws Income Tax
Retrenchment Compensation under Section 10(10B) and Leave Encashment Exemption under Section 10(10AA...
Show AI Summary
Substance-over-form treatment of VRS compensation can place retrenchment-linked payments within the distinct full-exemption framework for approved workforce reduction schemes.
Tax treatment of VRS-labelled separation payments depends on their substantive character. Payments connected with Government-supported workforce restructuring may qualify as retrenchment compensation under section 10(10B), rather than as voluntary-retirement compensation under section 10(10C), where the special-protection requirements are satisfied. Leave encashment must be examined separately under section 10(10AA), according to employee status and the applicable conditions or notified limit. Settlement components should be segregated and supported by scheme documents, approvals, computations, and tax records.
Case Laws Income Tax
Renewal of Registration under Section 12AB for Charitable Hospitals Engaged in Medical Relief: Retro...
Show AI Summary
Charitable hospital renewal depends on genuine medical relief, charitable application of income, and material regulatory compliance.
Renewal of section 12AB registration for a charitable hospital depends on genuine activities in furtherance of medical relief, application of income and assets to charitable objects, and compliance with other laws only where material to those objects. Receipts, premium facilities, tariff differentials, sophisticated infrastructure and professional management do not alone negate charitable status. Other-law non-compliance requires attention to the specified-violation framework and competent regulatory determinations. Retrospective cancellation is distinct from refusing renewal and requires an independent statutory and factual foundation, with reasonable opportunity of hearing.
Case Laws GST
Contractual Reimbursement of Incremental GST on Works Contracts and the Statutory-Contractual Divide
Show AI Summary
Contractual GST reimbursement in works contracts depends on tax-risk clauses and cannot alter statutory compliance obligations.
GST liability for a works contractor is governed by statute, while reimbursement of incremental GST from an employer depends on the contract's allocation of tax risk. An inclusive-tax clause must be read with change-in-law, price-adjustment, tender and amendment terms. Contract-wise reconciliation of pre-transition and post-transition work may support a supplementary agreement and revised GST-inclusive value where contractual entitlement exists. It cannot alter statutory valuation, return, limitation, interest or penalty requirements, which remain governed by GST law.
Case Laws Customs
Waiver of Late Fee on Supplementary Bills of Entry under Section 46(3) of the Customs Act, 1962: Exc...
Show AI Summary
Sufficient cause for delayed supplementary Bills of Entry requires a reasoned waiver assessment, not automatic system-generated late charges.
Late-presentation charges under Section 46(3) require the proper officer to be satisfied that no sufficient cause existed for delayed filing. Regulation 4(3) prescribes the late-charge framework and permits waiver where the reasons for delay are satisfactory. A delayed supplementary Bill of Entry for excess cargo is not automatically liable or automatically exempt; the assessment depends on timely original filing, linkage of the excess cargo to the same consignment, prompt amendment efforts, absence of importer fault, bona fides and duty compliance. Electronic calculation cannot substitute for a reasoned determination on sufficient cause.
Case Laws GST
Detention and Confiscation of Inter-State Consignments: Territorial Limits on State GST Officers - J...
Show AI Summary
Territorial GST jurisdiction limits detention and confiscation of inter-State consignments when the intercepting State lacks fiscal nexus.
Physical presence of goods in an intermediate State therefore does not alone create authority to detain, seize, penalise or confiscate. Cross-empowerment is functional and taxpayer-linked, preserving the single-interface administrative structure without creating geographically unlimited enforcement power. Where verification establishes that both origin and destination lie outside the intercepting State, the officer may verify documents, identify and record apparent discrepancies, and communicate them to the proper officers of the consignor and consignee, but lacks coercive jurisdiction over a pure transit supply.
Case Laws GST
Common Show Cause Notices across Multiple Financial Years: Scope of Sections 73 and 74 and Limitatio...
Show AI Summary
Consolidated GST show cause notices may cover multiple financial years, while each demand component remains independently subject to limitation.
Sections 73 and 74 do not expressly bar a common show cause notice covering multiple tax periods or financial years. The expressions "for any period" and "such periods" support consolidation, while financial-year references in the limitation provisions govern the deadline for adjudication orders rather than the scope of notice issuance. Each component demand must independently satisfy applicable limitation requirements. Section 74 requires disclosed material supporting fraud, wilful misstatement, or suppression of facts to evade tax; its extended limitation is not automatic.
Case Laws GST
Input Tax Credit Eligibility under the CGST Act: Supplier Tax Non-Payment and Recipient ITC Claims: ...
Show AI Summary
Supplier tax payment remains a substantive input tax credit condition, requiring reversal and allowing re-availment after compliance.
Section 16(2)(c) of the CGST Act makes actual payment of tax to the Government a substantive condition for input tax credit. The conditions under Section 16(2) operate cumulatively, and invoice reflection, receipt of supplies, or supplier return filing do not independently establish tax payment. Section 41 requires reversal of credit where the supplier has not paid tax, with re-availment allowed after payment. Rule 37A prescribes reversal and re-availment where the supplier fails to furnish the corresponding GSTR-3B within the prescribed period.
Case Laws GST
Actionable Claims, Contingent Winnings and Gross Valuation in GST on Gaming Transactions
Show AI Summary
GST valuation of stake-based gaming treats committed stakes as consideration for taxable actionable claims, irrespective of skill.
GST on stake-based gaming applies to the supply of actionable claims where money or money's worth is committed to an uncertain outcome in an organised betting or gambling arrangement. Skill in the underlying game does not remove the stake-based character of the transaction. Participants acquire contingent beneficial interests in pooled movable property, and committed stakes become consideration for participation. The platform is the supplier where it controls pooling, participation, gameplay and payouts. Gross stake valuation applies unless a statutory deduction is authorised, with specialised valuation mechanisms governing online gaming and casinos.
Case Laws GST
Invocation of Extended Limitation under Section 74 of the CGST Act: Foundational Facts, Prima Facie ...
Show AI Summary
Extended GST limitation requires disclosed prima facie material linking tax shortfall to fraud, wilful misstatement, or suppression.
Section 74 permits extended GST limitation only where available material supports a rational prima facie view that a tax shortfall, erroneous refund or wrongful credit arose by reason of fraud, wilful misstatement or suppression of facts to evade tax. Final proof is not required at initiation, but suspicion or bare statutory labels are insufficient. Prior scrutiny, audit, inspection or pre-notice communications may provide the factual foundation if actually communicated and linked to the notice. The notice and final order must preserve fair opportunity, disclose the material basis, and remain within the grounds stated.

Yes. In case of individuals and partnership firms whose aggregate value of taxable services provided from one or more premises is fifty lakhs rupees or less in the previous financial year, the service provider shall have the option to pay tax on taxable services provided or agreed to be provided by him up to a total of rupees fifty lakhs in the current financial year, by the dates specified in this sub-rule with respect to the month or quarter, as the case may be, in which payment is received.

Also in case of reverse charge i.e. where liability to pay service tax is on service receiver, service tax payment is allowed on cash i.e. payment basis. However if payment is not made in 3 months from the date of invoice , point of taxation shall be date immediately following the said period of 3 months.
