Parvathy R S vs. State Of Kerala
Held
The Court held that the time limit for furnishing returns for September should be treated as November 30th retrospectively from July 1, 2017. It also allowed petitioners to approach GST authorities within 30 days to avail benefits of relevant circulars for bona fide claims.
Facts
The petitioners sought Input Tax Credit (ITC) for various reasons, including technical issues in reflecting their returns or suppliers not remitting GST. Some had invoices but lacked clear proof of payment or receipt of goods.
Key Issues
Whether the time limit for filing returns under Section 39 should be extended retrospectively and if petitioners can avail ITC benefits under specific circulars for bona fide errors.
Sections Cited
Section 39, Section 16(2)(c), Section 16(4), Section 16(2)(aa)
