M/S Yokohama INDIA Private Limited vs. The State Of Telangana
Held

This is because allowing such amendments would lead to uncertainty and collapse of tax administration, as it would affect the obligations and liabilities of other stakeholders.
Facts
The petitioner, M/s Yokohama India Private Limited, sought to amend its GSTR-1 returns for January 2018 to August 2018 to correct a bona fide mistake in mentioning the distributor's name. This error prevented the distributor from utilizing input tax credit and led to non-payment of dues to the petitioner.
