Assessment Order not sustainable when vague in nature

In the legal case of Rainbow Stones (P.) Ltd. versus Assistant Commissioner (ST), as documented in Writ Petition No. 4510 of 2024 dated February 26, 2024, the Madras High Court responded by granting the writ petition. This decision was based on the assertion that the Assessment Order lacked clarity and proper justification.

Facts of the case:

Rainbow Stones (P.) Ltd. initiated a writ petition contesting an assessment order issued on December 31, 2023 (referred to as “the Impugned Order”), which centered around disparities between the Input Tax Credit (ITC) claimed in GSTR-3B and that reflected under GSTR-2A. The petitioner argued that the Impugned Order, issued by the Revenue Department (referred to as “the Respondent”), lacked specificity. The sole observation noted in the Impugned Order was the rejection of the petitioner’s response.

Held:

The Madras High Court, in Writ Petition No. 4510 of 2024, overturned the Impugned Order. The court held that the order lacked specificity, which was the basis for confirming the demand for tax, interest, and penalty. The High Court directed that the matter be reconsidered and a fresh order issued after affording the petitioner a reasonable opportunity to be heard.
