My client under KVAT had paid VAT of Rs.4500 when Intelligence Authorities visited shop.
also compounding penalty of Rs.3000 paid.
Now the case has been selected by the Audit wing of VAT authorities and proposing to levy penalty to the extent of upto 5 times of Rs.4500.
kindly advice whether this is justice and legally holds good.
I heard there is case in Karnataka High court : Burmaiah vs. Karnataka Govt.
Kindly let me know.
