Mahaveer Trade Centre vs. The State Of Andhra Pradesh
Held
The High Court closed all writ petitions after being informed that the GST Tribunal for Andhra Pradesh has been constituted and is functional. It directed the petitioners to approach the Tribunal by way of Second Appeals under Section 112 of the GST Act within eight weeks, with any interim directions continuing for twelve weeks.
Facts
Petitioners challenged First Appellate Orders passed under Section 107 of the GST Act, disputing the levy of 18% tax instead of 5% on job work receipts, along with interest and penalties. The writ petitions were initially entertained due to the non-availability of the GST Tribunal at that time.
Key Issues
The primary issue was the applicability of the correct tax rate (18% vs. 5%) on job work receipts under GST. A procedural issue regarding the availability of an alternative remedy before the GST Tribunal also arose.
