but that rule is for second hand goods we cannot take the interpretation of new cars which were never sold after registration to customers. would be tough to fit in that rule.
as you rightly said it is for second hand goods dealers, whereas the goods sold by original manufacturer to dealer could be treated as first sale and repossession could be treated as second hand sale.
in my view you can take this interpretation and try using the said rule
I agree there is sale happening between original manufacturing and dealer in first place. But the intention of the rule doesnot look like to cover this transaction.
if we forcely interpret and fit for our benefit then there be negative consequences for this later. that's the fear.
But if we take this interpretation keeping the future litigation aside, the credit availed by the defaulter is gone and the bank would anyways cannot take full credit or 50%.
There might be litigation but for such default depart is required to catch such defaulter and collect gst and not bank
