GST Council, CBIC and FM Fail To File Reply in SC:

GST Council, CBIC and FM Fail To File Reply in SC Respondents Union Finance Ministry, GST Council of India, and Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) failed to file the reply within the stipulated 30 days before the Supreme Court's double bench on Monday in the case relating to obtaining approval for filing revised return under GST regime. Pradeep Kanthed (Senior advocate), a distinguished legal professional linked with the Supreme Court, took the initiative to submit a petitioner in person (PIP) in the case. This legal action took place in front of the Supreme Court's esteemed double bench, presided over by Justice BV Nagarathna and Ujjawal Bhuyan. The significant development happened on October 20, 2023, when the double bench diligently issued notices to all the respondents involved in the case. The bench, exercising its due diligence, sought the respondents to submit their responses within a period of thirty days. This judicial procedure is a crucial step forward in the continuing proceedings, demonstrating the court's commitment to conduct a thorough investigation into the issue at hand. Kanthed stated that none of the three had submitted a response as of November 20, i.e. Monday. He stated that he intended to present an oral submission before the court. Kanthed argued in the petition that, like other tax regimes and past indirect tax regimes, GST taxpayers are allowed to file a revised return.
