[W.P.(T) No. 213 of 2021 dated December 7, 2021] set aside the order rejecting the refund claim of the assessee amounting to INR 12,69,255/- passed by the Appellate Authority and remanded back the matter to decide the same afresh in accordance with law and in light of the Circular No. 162/18/2021-GST dated September 25, 2021 (“the Circular”) interpreting the phrase “subsequently held” in the provisions of Section 77 of Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 (“the CGST Act”) and Section 19 of the Integrated Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 (“the IGST Act”).
Facts:
M/s Radhemani And Sons (“the Petitioner”) a proprietorship firm had filed an application for refund claim of INR 12,69,255/- on March 18, 2020 under Rule 89 (1) of Central Goods and Services Tax Rules, 2017 (“CGST Rules”) on account of “Excess payment of IGST in February, 2018 in GSTR 3B Return” for the tax period February, 2018 in RFD-01. After considering the said application, a Show Cause Notice dated March 31, 2020 (“the SCN”) was issued by the Deputy Commissioner (“the Respondent No. 2”) in Form GST-RFD-08 and the Petitioner failed to submit any reply w.r.t. the SCN, therefore, the Respondent No. 2, vide order dated April 23, 2020 rejected the refund application of the Petitioner.
Being aggrieved, an appeal was preferred by the Petitioner before the Additional Commissioner (Appeals) CGST and Central Excise, Raipur (“the Respondent No. 1”) who, in turn, while considering the provisions prescribed under Section 77 of the CGST Act, and Section 19 of the IGST Act, vide order dated June 25, 2021 (“the Impugned Order”) rejected the appeal while affirming the order of the Respondent No. 2.
Aggrieved therewith, the Petitioner has filed this writ petition
The Petitioner contended that the word “subsequently held”, referred in Section 77 of the CGST Act, read with Section 19 of IGST Act, has been interpreted in the Circular by observing inter alia that the refund under the said sections is also available when the inter-State or intra-State supply made by a taxpayer, is subsequently found by taxpayer himself as intra-State and inter-State respectively.
Issue:
Whether the refund would be available to the Petitioner for the inter-State or intra-State supply made?
