Kumar Traders And Company Vs State of Assam
GST - The grievance of the petitioners is the unauthorised inspection, search and seizure of their godown at Amingaon, by the authorities of the Bureau of Investigation for Economic Offences (BIEO) Officers on 27.7.2017, who have seized around 7290 bags of dried areca nuts, under the 2 seizure lists dated 27.7.2017 - the petitioners contend that this is an unnecessary intervention by an incompetent authority.
HELD: The stored areca nuts were neither stolen nor were kept in suspicious circumstances -at best, tax is payable for dealing in areca nuts but that would be in the domain of the Finance & Taxation Department -the submissions made by the Addl. Advocate General, Assam and the Asstt. Solicitor General of India reflect that the BIEO team may have acted beyond their jurisdiction -therefore, the Govt. Advocate has prayed for and is granted three weeks time to file counter affidavit - in the interim, to facilitate the petitioners to carry on their legitimate business and taking note of the fact that rate of tax is @2.5% for areca nuts, under the Assam GST Act, 2017 and they are to pay further 2.5% tax to the Central Govt. coffer, subject to the petitioners' furnishing BG for Rs.30 lakh towards the estimated tax, to the Commissioner of State Tax (respondent No.2), the seized goods should be released to the custody of the petitioners -the 7290 bags of areca nuts, after due verification should be released, in presence of the Tax Department Officials -however, the transportation and business of areca nuts will be subject to realization of due tax by the authorities and the Bank guarantee, ordered to be deposited, is only an estimation and is not on quantification of the payable tax -the Finance & Taxation Department is at liberty to estimate the precise payable tax and make the assessment -it is ordered accordingly : HIGH COURT [para 4, 6] - Interim Order passed : GAUHATI HIGH COURT
