- In a recent matter, the Hon’ble Delhi High Court issued directions, dated May 20, 2022 in the matter of WP(C) 7110/2022 (Lord Krishna Traders Private Limited Vis Commissioner of Delhi Goods & Services Tax), that the Commissioner, DGST, will convene a formal meeting with Petitioner’s counsel and other practitioners, so that a robust mechanism is put in place for timely disposal of refund claims.
- The disposal of refund applications in a time bound manner is an integral part of the VAT/GST mechanism. In this regard, attention is drawn to Section 38 of Delhi Value Added Tax Act, 2004 and Section 56 of the DGST Act as per which, if any tax is to be refunded under sub-section 5 of Section 54 but is not refunded within 60 days from the receipt of application under sub-section (1) of that section, interest at such rates not exceeding six percent as may be specified in the notification issued by the Government, shall be payable in respect of such refunds from the next day of the sixtieth day of the receipt of application. Therefore, it becomes imperative upon the concerned refund sanctioning authority/proper officer that all refund applications are processed and decided within the prescribed time frame in order to avoid undue interest liability on the department.
