Petition allowed; impugned GST order set aside for missing DIN, matter remanded for fresh adjudication
Case-Laws
GST
The HC allowed the petition, set aside the impugned order dated 06.01.2025 and remanded the matter to the AO for fresh proceedings in accordance with law. The court accepted that although an appeal had been initially rejected on limitation grounds, the validity of the underlying order was vitiated by non-inclusion of the DIN as required under the GST Act and related administrative instructions; consequently the impugned order is treated as invalid and requires fresh adjudication. The AO is directed to proceed afresh, ensuring statutory formalities (including DIN compliance) are observed and to decide the matter on merits within the statutory framework.

Mumbai, Sep 21 (PTI) Maharashtra Congress president Harshwardhan Sapkal on Sunday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of trying to take credit for the reduction in GST rates while ignoring the Â“economic lootÂ” over the past eight years through higher levies.
Sapkal said in a statement that Modi, who addressed the nation in the evening, claimed credit for slashing Goods and Services Tax (GST) rates.
Â“It was the PM himself who in 2017 introduced exorbitantly high GST rates that burdened industries, traders and ordinary citizens. The GST collection has doubled to Rs 22 lakh crore in these years, hitting con

Targeting the PMÂ’s call for self-reliance, Sapkal alleged that Modi Â“preachesÂ” swadeshi while using foreign-made cars, watches, pens and phones. Â“If this is being projected as a savings festival, were the past eight years nothing but a loot festival,Â” he asked.
Sapkal also claimed that the PMÂ’s speech lacked enthusiasm and confidence.
Â“This may be a reflection of growing anger among people and the slogans of Â‘vote chor, gaddi chhodÂ’ resonating across the country. Instead of misleading speeches, the prime minister must sincerely address inflation, unemployment and the crisis in agriculture,Â” he said.
