Quick Summary

The Madras High Court has ruled that the GST department must process Input Tax Credit (ITC) claims that were rejected solely due to an inadvertent error. In this case, Abi Egg Traders mistakenly selected 'with payment of tax' instead of 'without payment of tax' when filing their GSTR-3B for exports. The court found the error to be bona fide and affirmed the petitioner's entitlement to ITC on tax-exempt exports, setting aside the rejection.
