Rule 44A of the Central Goods & Services Tax Rules, 2017 — Reversal of credit — The challenge in these petitions is inter alia to the impugned Notification dated 17th August 2017, whereby the Respondents have inserted Rule 44 A in the Central Goods and Services Rules, 2017 (CGS Rules) requiring reversal of 5/6th of the CENVAT Credit which had already accrued to the Petitioner on account of payment of additional duty of customs levied under Section 3(1) of the Customs Tariff Act, 1975 ("Countervailing Duty"/"CVD") paid at the time of importation of gold dore bar. The said CVD was allowed to be carried forward in full as a transitional measure under Section 140 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 ('CGST Act'). It also provided credit of the entire CVD paid on inputs held in stock and inputs contained in semi-finished or finished goods held in stock on 1st July 2017 on complying with certain conditions. The Petitioners state that they fulfilled all the conditions and the credit of the CVD paid on imported gold dore bars accrued to them. Delhi High Court while granting interim relief held that:—The Court is of the view that the Petitioners have made out a prima facie case for grant of interim relief in their favour. Further, the balance of convenience is in their favour for grant of interim relief. Accordingly, it is directed that till the next date of hearing, no coercive steps shall be taken by the Respondents to recover the credit already availed by the Petitioners.[2017] 49 TUD 401 (DEL)
