The Hon’ble Allahabad High Court in the case of Ram Krishna Gupta allowed the writ petition and set aside the penalty order under Section 129 of the CGST Act thereby holding that penalty under Section 129 should not be imposed merely based on technical error in filing of e-way bill i.e. e-way bill not complete when there is no intention to evade payment of tax.
Seizure of goods without providing opportunity to assessee to explain discrepancy in E-Way is against natural justice: HC
E-Way bill exemption for certain items carried for job work purpose
