DIC India Limited Receives GST Demand Order of ₹17.32 Lakhs
DIC India Limited received a GST demand order for ₹17.32 Lakhs, including ₹8.14 Lakhs GST, ₹8.37 Lakhs interest, and ₹81,412 penalty for FY 2017-18. The company believes the order is arbitrary and is reviewing its next steps.
The total demand of ₹17.32 Lakhs is a relatively small amount for a listed company and is unlikely to have a significant financial impact on operations.
The company has received a demand order for GST, interest, and penalty, which is a negative financial event, even though they believe it to be arbitrary.
DIC India Limited has received an order from the Joint Commissioner of Commercial Taxes (Appeals)-8, Bangalore, upholding a demand of ₹17,32,208. This demand comprises ₹8,14,112 in GST, ₹8,36,684 in interest, and ₹81,412 in penalty.
The order pertains to the tax period of July 2017 to March 2018 and was issued based on alleged mismatches in GSTR 2A and GSTR 3B, denial of Input Tax Credit (ITC) on alleged blocked credit, and a demand of GST on recovery of R&D expenses from a foreign entity.
The company believes the order to be arbitrary, as its contentions in the appeal were not fully considered. DIC India Limited is currently conducting a detailed review of the order to determine the next course of action.
