The State Of Telangana vs. M/S. New Dhiraj Industries
Held
The Court held that the mere fact that the seller has not paid tax does not automatically disentitle the subsequent purchaser from claiming input tax credit. This was based on various High Court decisions.
Facts
The State of Telangana challenged an order allowing a registered VAT dealer to avail input tax credit. The contention was that the dealer made purchases from a seller who had not paid taxes.
Key Issues
Whether a registered dealer can be denied input tax credit solely because the original seller defaulted in paying taxes.
