AI SummaryRemanded

Held

The Court held that the selling dealer was registered during the relevant tax periods. The disallowance of input tax credit solely on the ground of the selling dealer being de-registered was not acceptable. The matter was remitted for reconsideration.

Facts

The petitioner challenged a reassessment order and demand notice that disallowed input tax credit. The disallowance was primarily based on the selling dealer being considered de-registered during the relevant period.

Key Issues

Whether input tax credit can be disallowed if the selling dealer was registered during the period of transaction, and if the purchasing dealer has provided proof of tax payment.
