Rana Sugars receives ₹53.29 Lakh GST demand order; company to appeal.
Rana Sugars Limited received a GST demand order totaling ₹53.29 Lakhs for alleged violations related to e-way bills, molasses quantity, and bio-compost distribution in FY 2019-20. The company plans to appeal the order, asserting no significant financial or operational impact.
While the company believes the demand is not maintainable and expects no significant impact, the order itself represents a financial liability and potential litigation, warranting a medium impact assessment.
The company has received a significant demand order from GST authorities, which includes duty, interest, and penalty.
Rana Sugars Limited has received an order from the Additional Commissioner, Grade II Appeal, Central Goods and Services Tax, Moradabad, Uttar Pradesh, on April 30, 2026. The order imposes a consolidated demand of ₹53,28,932, comprising a duty demand of ₹23,42,902, interest of ₹27,51,740, and a penalty of ₹2,34,290.
This demand is related to alleged violations concerning e-way bills, excess molasses quantity, and the free distribution of bio-compost during the Financial Year 2019-20. The company has stated that it has already responded to the department's queries and believes the demand is not maintainable.
Rana Sugars Limited is currently evaluating all available options, including filing an appeal against this order before the Tribunal or the appropriate authority. The company expressed confidence in its case and does not foresee any significant impact on its financials, operations, or other activities.
