But, according to the petitioner, due to technical glitches in the portal, they could not complete the filing process within the statutory due date ie. before 27.12.2017. Therefore, according to the petitioner, they had tried the grievance redressal portal, but, all the efforts made by the petitioner have ended in vain. In the meantime, the petitioner has filed the TRAN 1 form, manually, on 31.01.2018, before the Assistant Commissioner, CGST & Central Excise, Tirunelveli.

e of the progressive ideal of GST is to avoid cascading taxes. GST Laws contemplate seamless flow of tax credits on all eligible inputs. The input tax credits in TRAN 1 are the credits legitimately accrued in the GST transition. The due date contemplated under the laws to claim the transitional credit is procedural in nature. In view of the GST regime and the IT platform being new, it may not be justifiable to expect the users to back up digital evidences. Even under the old taxation laws, it is a settled legal position that substantive input credits cannot be denied or altered on account of procedural grounds. 9. In view of the foregoing discussions and also considering the special circumstances of the case that the petitioner has made genuine efforts for filing returns not only through online but also manually, this Court is of the view that the petitioner may be granted the relief as prayed for. 10.
