Seizure and appellate orders quashed; movement of excavator for repair not a taxable supply under GST section 129(3)
Case-Laws
GST
The HC quashed the seizure and appellate orders and allowed the petition. The court held that the intercepted goods, a hydraulic excavator sent for repair, did not constitute a taxable supply of goods or services under the GST regime as per the Government circulars treating movement for repair as non-taxable. Consequently, there was no GST liability requiring transport documentation or justification for seizure under section 129(3) of the GST Act. The impugned orders of the Assistant Commissioner and the Additional Commissioner were declared unsustainable in law and set aside, and the petitioner's challenge was accordingly allowed.

Centre's GST rate cuts direct consequence of BJP losing absolute majority in Lok Sabha: Abhishek
GST
Dated:- 22-9-2025
PTI
Kolkata, Sep 22 (PTI) Trinamool Congress leader Abhishek Banerjee on Monday alleged that the Centre's decision to reduce GST rates across commodities was a direct fallout of the BJP losing an absolute majority in the Lok Sabha in 2024.
Referring to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's address to the nation on the eve of GST 2.0 rollout on Sunday, Banerjee asked whether there was a “GST Loot Utsav” taking place for the past eight years.
“There's a saying in Bengali that a cat never climbs a tree until it is in danger. The BJP has suffered electoral losses; they lost 60 seats and their tally (in Lok Sabha) has gon

-18, when GST was first introduced, for the last eight years or so, was a 'GST Loot Utsav' taking place?” the TMC national general secretary asked.
The leader emphasised a direct correlation between the BJP's performance in the 2024 polls and the policy of GST cut.
“It is evident that if the BJP loses, taxes decrease. And if the BJP wins, taxes go up. This is clear as daylight. The GST rates never went down in the past decade and no relief measure was announced for the common people. It has happened now because the BJP has lost,” Banerjee maintained.
He also lashed out at the manner in which tax collections have been managed in “non-BJP ruled states”.

“What about the PM inaugurating the Ram temple and the idol of Ram Lalla in Ayodhya in January 2024, three months before Ram Navami? Has any BJP leader commented on that act which was done eyeing the Lok Sabha elections?” he asked.
Banerjee alleged that the Modi government has perfected the “art of double speak, taking no accountability for abrupt declaration of demonetisation leading to deaths of many people, and taking away financial dues of the state against the spirit of the federal setup”.
Accusing the BJP of lacking transparency, he demanded to know how much money had been given to West Bengal and how much taken from the state through direct and indirect taxes.

New Delhi, Sep 22 (PTI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said the next generation GST reforms will boost savings and directly benefit every section of society, as he asserted that it is imperative to walk on the path of self-reliance to achieve the collective goal of Viksit Bharat by 2047.
In an open letter to Indians which he posted on X, Modi said that from September 22, next generation GST reforms have begun to make their presence felt, marking the start of a 'GST Bachat Utsav' or 'GST Savings Festival' across the country.
“This year, the festive season brings an added reason to rejoice.

Noting that the nation's GST journey, which began in 2017, was a turning point in freeing citizens and businesses from the web of multiple taxes, Modi said the GST united the nation economically.
“'One Nation, One Tax' brought uniformity and relief. The GST Council, with the active participation of both Centre and states, took many pro-people decisions. Now, these new reforms take us further, simplifying the system, reducing rates and putting more savings in the hands of the people,” he said.
