The error apparently came to the notice of the petitioner only during finalization of the accounts with respondent no.5 who had also by that time detected availment of ITC in .....

Held - The only reason for declining the input tax credit was on the ground that the selling dealers’ registration was cancelled with retrospective effect. Be that as it may, the larger relief sought for by the respondents/writ petitioners mainly writ of declaration has not been granted by the learned Single Judge.
