Sales Tax Review

January  2008

Important Judgment

Commissioner's SLP on TISCO'S Judgment rejected:

On 9-10-2001 the Hon'ble MSTT had allowed the claim of the assessee under section 5(2) of the CST Act – (1) on being satisfied that there exist inexplicable link between sale and import and the claim can be allowed under first limb (2) for the goods imported in bulk and sold on highseas by endorsing different bill of ladings. The argument of unascertained goods at the time of sale in course of import was not accepted.

The Commissioner's reference was rejected by the Bombay High Court [5 VST 137 (Bom)]. The SLP by Commissioner against Bombay High Court's decision rejected by the Hon'ble Apex Court on account of non-prosecution, non-attendance and non filing of written submission.
