Facts of the Case

The Supreme Court dismissed the government’s appeal and upheld the Gujarat High Court’s decision allowing pre-deposit for GST appeals under Section 107(6)(b) to be made using the Electronic Credit Ledger. The Revenue had insisted that such payments must be made via the Electronic Cash Ledger, but this was overruled. The High Court relied on CBIC’s Circular No. CBIC-20001/2/2022-GST, Dated 06-07-2022, which permits use of the Credit Ledger for pre-deposits.

Supreme Court Held

The Supreme Court found no reason to interfere with the High Court’s view and ruled in favour of the assesse.
