Notification No. 56/2023-CT ultra vires S. 168A for extending timeline for passing GST Order for FY 2018-19 and 2019-20

Last updated: 27 September 2024
Quick Summary
The Gauhati High Court has ruled that Notification No. 56/2023-Central Tax is invalid and cannot be legally sustained. The court found that the notification, which extended the time for passing GST orders for FY 2018-19 and 2019-20, was issued without the necessary recommendation from the GST Council and without proper consideration of 'force majeure' circumstances. Consequently, orders passed under this notification have been set aside.
