The amendments aim to ease compliance, improve business liquidity, and address long-standing industry concerns.

The requirement for post-sale discounts to be linked to a pre-existing agreement has been removed, offering greater commercial flexibility, provided the recipient reverses their input tax credit.

Provisional refund benefits are extended to inverted duty structures, and the threshold limit for sanctioning refund claims for exporters has been removed, speeding up processing.

An interim appellate mechanism will be authorised to hear appeals until the National Appellate Authority is constituted, preventing a gap in dispute resolution.
