The highlights look like this :
1) Minimum Floor Wage is being relooked at. Every State
as of now has its own figure but nothing across the country. The MFW was not a
mandate earlier which is why it was left to State and Employer to settle but
under the new law will be prescribed.
CBIC clarifies on supply of restaurant services through e-commerce operators under GST
This Tax Alert
summarizes a recent Circular [1] issued by the Central Board of
Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC). The Circular addresses various issues
relating to the liability of E-commerce operator (ECO) to pay GST on supply of
restaurant services made through it w.e.f. 1 January 2022.
The key clarifications are:
- As ECOs are already registered
as supplier of goods or services, there is no requirement to obtain
separate registration for payment of tax on restaurant service.
- ECO will be liable to issue
invoice and pay GST on any restaurant service supplied through it
including by an unregistered person.
- Aggregate turnover of
restaurant will include value of supply made through ECO for threshold
consideration or any other purpose.
- ECO is not required to reverse
input tax credit on account of restaurant services on which it pays tax.
Further, the tax liability needs to be discharged in cash only.
- On any supply other than
restaurant service, the liability to pay GST continues on the supplier and
ECO shall continue to collect tax at source on such supplies.
- ECO may also furnish the
details of restaurant supplies in Table 4A (registered customers) or Table
7A(1) (unregistered customers) of GSTR-1.
On the other hand, restaurant will report such supplies in Table 8 of GSTR-1
and Table 3.1(c) of GSTR-3B, for the time being. The said tables deal with nil
rated and exempt supply.

Tax paid under protest can be set-off against pre-deposit - Supreme Court
In an important decision in VVF India Limited v. The State of Maharashtra, 2021-VIL-92-SC, the Hon’ble Supreme Court has held that amount paid under protest before assessment order can be adjusted again payment of pre-deposit under Maharashtra VAT Laws.
Brief of the case
·
The
taxpayer filed the SLP against the HC decision wherein the Court ruled that 10
percent of pre-deposit is to computed on demand after deducting any amount paid
under protest i.e. 10% x (Demand-Protest payment)
·
The
Apex Court observed that the provision provides for 10 percent pre-deposit on
the 'amount disputed by the taxpayer' and not 10 percent on the 'amount in
arrear'.
·
The
Apex Court held that any amount deposited by the taxpayer anterior to
assessment is eligible to be set-off from the amount of pre-deposit.
| Remarks
·
In our view, the decision can be applied to GST laws as well
since the pre-deposit provisions under GST also provides for pre-deposit as a
percentage of 'disputed amount' and not 'amount in arrear'.

HC holds SC order on extension of limitation period applies to refund claims under GST
This Tax Alert summarizes a recent ruling of the Madras High Court (HC) The issue involved was whether extended period of limitation as per Supreme Court (SC) order is applicable to refund claim filed under Goods and Services Tax (GST).
Earlier, taking suo moto cognizance of the situation arising due to COVID-19
pandemic, SC had extended the limitation period (prescribed under general or
special law) in respect of judicial and quasi-judicial proceedings w.e.f. 15
March 2020 until 2 October 2021.
Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) vide Circular no. 157/13/2021-GST
dated 20 July 2021 clarified that:
- Proceedings that need to be
initiated or compliances that need to be done by the taxpayers; and
- Quasi-judicial proceedings by
tax authorities which include disposal of application for refund,
adjudication proceedings of demand notice,
In the present case, the petitioner filed refund application after expiry of two years from the relevant date and the same was rejected by the Revenue. Aggrieved, the petitioner filed a writ petition before HC.
HC held that the SC order clearly enures to the benefit of the petitioner and therefore, refund application needs to be entertained. Accordingly, HC set aside the rejection order and directed Revenue to examine the refund application de novo and pass fresh order.
The ruling is likely to help businesses in cases where the limitation period as per GST law has expired.

Changes in GSTR-1 Interface and Generate Summary
This is to bring to your kind attention on the changes introduced by GSTN in the process of filing of GSTR-1 and improvements in GSTR-1. Below are key changes in the GSTR-1 as per the GSTN advisory:
Wednesday, 1 December 2021
Supplier identification and their review are 'Intermediary Services' - AAAR
Appellate Authority for Advance Ruling,
Karnataka (‘AAAR’) in the case of Airbus Group India Private Limited,
2021-VIL-63-AAAR, dealt with the scope of ‘intermediary services’ under
Goods and Services Tax (‘GST’) after the issuance of a Circular by the CBIC.
Facts of the Case
·
The
Appellant, a subsidiary of a foreign company, entered into an agreement with
its Parent company to provide certain services including supplier
identification and performance review, technical advisory to suppliers for
meeting quality standards, etc.
·
The
agreement stipulated that all operative decisions were handled by the Parent
company such as selection of suppliers, negotiation, and further communications
with them, etc.
·
The
Authority for Advance Ruling (‘AAR’) held that such an arrangement falls under
‘intermediary services’.
AAAR Ruling
·
Appellant
is neither a broker nor an agent. The expression ‘any other person’ in the
definition of ‘intermediary’ also include a person who is not similar to a
‘broker’ or ‘an agent’. The Doctrine of Ejusdem Generis cannot be
applied.
·
Since
the Appellant’s role, inter alia, was to continuously assess the
supplier performance, it constitutes ‘facilitation/arrangement’. Thus, the
Appellant is providing ‘intermediary services to its Parent company.
·
That
the recent Circular No. 159/15/2021-GST dated September 20, 2021, issued
by CBIC goes against the Appellant.
| Remarks
·
While we agree with the AAAR that the Doctrine of Ejusdem
Generis is not applicable (on a different reasoning), the decision by
the AAAR may be incorrect under GST laws.
·
The AAAR has wrongly interpreted the recent clarification issued
by CBIC in concluding that the Appellant is providing the ancillary services
and not the main services.
·
Now, assuming that the Circular favours the Appellant and since
AAAR decision is binding on the Appellant under GST laws, the moot question is
‘which will prevail, the circular or AAAR’?

Important clarification by CBIC on refunds related issues
Circular No.
166/22/2021-GST dated November 17, 2021 issued by the Central Board of Indirect Taxes (‘CBIC’)
providing clarification on certain refund related issues. Given below the summary of circular with our
comments.
S. No. |
Issue |
Clarification |
Comments |
1 |
Whether limitation period of 2 years applicable
for filing refund application of excess balance in e-cash ledger? |
Limitation period is not applicable |
Balance in e-cash ledger
is as good as cash for a taxpayer and does not partake form of a ‘tax’ |
2 |
Whether declaration/certification of unjust
enrichment required in case of refund of excess balance in e-cash ledger? |
Not required, as unjust enrichment clause is not
applicable in such cases |
Balance in e-cash ledger
is taxpayer’s own money and hence, no point of unjust enrichment |
3 |
Whether refund of TDS/TCS deposited in e-cash
ledger under GST can be refunded as excess balance in cash ledger? |
TDS/ TCS credited to e-cash ledger is equivalent
to cash deposited in the ledger. Therefore, said amount can be refunded as
excess balance in e-cash ledger |
Practically, once a
taxpayer files a refund application, Department is denying the same on the
ground either of difference in GSTR-2A v. GSTR-3B or some other ground which
has no relation with the e-cash refund. Realising this
especially from TCS/TDS perspective, recently, GST Council has decided to
allow taxpayers to transfer such balance from one GSTIN to another. Portal
functionality is yet to come. |
4 |
What is the ‘relevant date’ for filing
refund claim under Deemed Exports by the recipient? |
The date of filing of return (covering the deemed
exports supplies) by the supplier
|
It is, therefore,
important for the recipient not to delay in claiming the ITC because the
limitation period of 2 years shall start from the date of supplier’s return. |

All through the past few months, the finance dailies have been talking about the introduction of a new regime of taxing digital transactions and the abolition of the Equalization Levy. The article is an attempt to simplify digital taxation and address some of the key points of the proposal. What is the whole discussion about?
What is the difference between FDI and FPI?
Each Country needs money for its profitable widening also the funds can’t be elevated from just its domestic sources only. In this fast-developing world, The two main and well-needed kinds of foreign capital are Foreign Portfolio Investment (FPI) and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).
FDI
relates to the foreign investment where the investor gets a lasting
interest in an enterprise in another country. It involves establishing a
direct business interest in a foreign country, such as buying or
establishing a manufacturing business, building warehouses, or buying
buildings. Also, it tends to involve creating more of a substantial,
long-term interest in the economy of a foreign country. FDI can also be
made through different methods like creating a joint venture, through
merger and acquisition, etc.
Foreign Portfolio Investments (FPI)
refers to investing in the financial assets of a foreign country, such
as stocks or bonds available on an exchange. It includes the buying of
securities that can be easily bought or marketed. Hoping to generate a
fast return the main motive of FPI is to invest money into a foreign
country’s stock market.

Understand best judgment assessment under section 144.
§ This is an assessment carried out as per the best judgment of the Assessing Officer on the basis of all relevant material he has gathered. This assessment is carried out in cases where the taxpayer fails to comply with the requirements specified in section 144.
Whether intimation U/S 143(1) can be revised U/S 264 by the commissioner?
Ø
·
From the various judicial
pronouncements, it is settled that the powers conferred under section 264 of
the Act are very wide.
·
Under this section, the
Principal Commissioner is mandated not to revise any order in two situations:
first where an appeal that lies to the Commissioner (Appeals) but has not been
made and the time within which such appeal may be made has not expired or
second, where the assessee has not waived his right of appeal.
·
Bombay HC in the case of
Aafreen Fatima Fazal Abbas Sayed v. ACIT AND PCIT (WRIT PETITION (L) NO. 6096
OF 2021) has held that since section 264 uses the expression “any order”, it
would imply that the section does not limit the power to correct errors
committed by the subordinate authorities but could even be exercised where
errors are committed by assessees.
·
Article 265 of the
Constitution of India imposes an embargo on imposition and collection of tax if
the same is without authority of law.
·
Thus, The powers given to
Commissioner of Income Tax under section 264 are very wide and he can revise
any order including intimation under section 143(1)
