Delhi HC directed to hold final order w.r.t. reopening of old assessments of pre-GST period


Quick Summary
The Delhi High Court has directed that while proceedings can continue regarding the reopening of old assessments for the pre-GST period (2015-2017), any final orders issued must be put on hold until the writ petition is decided. This comes after Tuli Motors challenged the validity of reopening these assessments, arguing that the relevant legislation was repealed by the CGST Act. The court's decision allows the process to move forward but prevents immediate enforcement of the outcome.
