Facts

The petitioner, M/s. Harsh Polyfabric Pvt. Ltd., filed two writ petitions (WPO/1467/2023 and WPO/145/2025) before the Calcutta High Court. The judgment indicates that the petitioner sought a correction in an order dated 20th May, 2025. The Court, however, viewed this correction as being in the nature of a review. The specific details of the original order, the authority that passed it, the tax period(s), the amount in dispute, and the procedural history leading to the initial order are not recorded in the provided text.

Held

The Court held that the correction sought by the petitioner, being in the nature of a review, could not be allowed. Consequently, the unsigned order dated 20th May, 2025, was recalled. The reasoning provided is that a review is a specific legal process with its own procedures and grounds, and a simple correction request cannot substitute for it. The Court did not delve into the merits of the original order or the petitioner's underlying grievance, focusing solely on the procedural aspect of the request for correction. No specific provisions of the GST Act or Rules were discussed in relation to this decision. The Court's decision is based on the principle that a review cannot be sought through a miscellaneous application for correction.
