Sany Heavy Industry INDIA Private Limited vs. The State Tax Officer
Held
The Court held that the impugned order was a non-speaking order as it failed to address the petitioner's contention that the transaction was not taxable. The Court set aside the order and remanded the case back to the respondent for a reasoned decision.
Facts
The petitioner sent a Hydraulic Excavator for demonstration purposes on a returnable basis. Due to an inadvertent mistake in the address on the e-way bill, the consignment was intercepted and a demand for IGST and penalty was raised. The petitioner submitted a reply and a bank guarantee, after which the goods were released.
Key Issues
Whether the transaction of sending goods for demonstration on a returnable basis constitutes a taxable supply under the IGST Act, and whether the assessing officer adequately considered the petitioner's contentions.
