M/S. Vennila Clothing Company vs. The State Of Andhra Pradesh
Held
The High Court noted that the GST Tribunal for Andhra Pradesh has now been constituted and is functioning. It closed all writ petitions, granting petitioners liberty to file Second Appeals before the Tribunal under Section 112 of the GST Act within eight weeks, with any interim orders continuing for twelve weeks.
Facts
Petitioners challenged appellate orders confirming 18% GST on job work receipts instead of 5%, along with interest and penalty, arguing against specific GST notifications and sections. They filed writ petitions as the Goods and Services Tax Tribunal was not yet constituted.
Key Issues
The primary legal issue was the challenge to the GST rate applicable to job work receipts and the availability of an alternative remedy before the GST Tribunal, which was not functional when the writ petitions were initially filed.

Section 107, Section 112
