First Appellate Authority under section 107 of the CGST Act has no power to remand matters to the Adjudicating Authority

Quick Summary
The Allahabad High Court has ruled that the Appellate Authority, under Section 107(11) of the CGST Act, 2017, does not have the power to send cases back to the adjudicating authority. The court found that appellate orders remitting matters for reconsideration were unlawful. This decision reaffirms that the appellate authority must either confirm, modify, or annul the original decision, as the statute explicitly prohibits remanding cases.

Court :
Allahabad High Court

Brief :
The Hon’ble Allahabad High Court in the case of M/s Anand and Anand (Law Firm) v. Principal Commissioner, Central Goods and Services Tax & Ors.
