For Petitioner: SRI.SOJAN JAMES, SHRI.SIVANKUTTY S
AI SummaryAllowed

Held

The Court directed the petitioner to apply to the Nodal Officer for resolution of the technical glitch. The Nodal Officer is to facilitate the uploading of FORM GST TRAN-1 without reference to the time-frame and enable the petitioner to claim input tax credit if uploading is not possible due to reasons not attributable to the petitioner.

Facts

The petitioner, a migrated dealer to GST, failed to upload FORM GST TRAN-1 within the stipulated time due to alleged system errors. This prevented them from claiming input tax credit available at the time of migration.

Key Issues

Whether the petitioner should be allowed to upload FORM GST TRAN-1 beyond the stipulated time due to technical glitches and claim input tax credit.
