The Appellate Authority, in the instance case, was required to grant the petitioner an opportunity to explain its stand on GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B. We are of the opinion that the impugned order militates against the principles of natural justice. Accordingly, the order is set aside and quashed.
Refund- It is the case of the petitioner that wo consignments of pine bark extract and Crospovidone NF were transferred by the petitioner from Unit-II to Unit-I. As the transfer did not qualify as supply in terms of Section 7 of the CGST Act, such transfer ought to have been effected under the cover of a delivery challan but, inadvertently two invoices came to be issued. Having realized the mistake, the transfers were not declared as “outward supply” in the Form GSTR-01.
However, at the time of filing of the GSTR-3B return for the month in question, the petitioner inadvertently took these two invoices into consideration and discharged GST.
Subsequently, the petitioner filed an online application in Form GST RFD-01A under Section 54 of the CGST Act seeking refund of such amount.
However, prayer for refund was rejected on the ground that there is no provision under GST Act and GST Rules for refund of excess payment of tax, if such payment is made through ITC.
Held that- The Appellate Authority, in the instance case, was required to grant the petitioner an opportunity to explain its stand on GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B as also the Circulars. We are of the opinion that the impugned order militates against the principles of natural justice. Accordingly, the order dated 11.09.2019 is set aside and quashed.
