Fines
Reported in the filing for the quarter to Sep 2026.
- Fine or penaltyOffice of the State Tax Officer, Taxpayer Services Circle, State GST Department, Payyanur, Kerala.Since 22 Oct 2026
Final Assessment Orders passed under Section 25(1) of the Kerala Value Added Tax (KVAT) Act, 2003, for the Assessment Years 2005-06 to 2009-10. Following a remand from the Hon’ble KVAT Appellate Tribunal, the authority has successfully dropped all major tax proposals and penalties across all 5 years, concluding 4 out of 5 years with a NIL tax demand. A minor demand has been confirmed strictly for AY 2008-09 concerning an omission of an interstate purchase.
The matter pertains to old assessments where the department originally treated the Company as a normal trader, imposing high gross profit margins. Upon verifying that the transactions were under a revenue-sharing works contract with ECIL for the Kerala Motor Vehicle Department and that full tax was deducted at source (TDS), the authority accepted the Company's books. For AY 2008-09, a minor technical omission regarding an unreported interstate purchase of a UPS system valuing ₹2,15,359/- from Puducherry was sustained.MoreLess
