Government extends full customs duty exemption on critical petrochemical products in view of ongoing conflict in West Asia till 15th July 2026

Press release ID 2279424 dated 30.06.26

The Government had earlier provided a full Customs Duty exemption on imports of critical petrochemical products till 30th June 2026, as a temporary and targeted relief in view of the conflict in West Asia and the consequent disruptions in global supply chains.

The exemption was provided to ensure sufficient availability of petrochemicals in the domestic market as Indian petroleum companies had been asked to concentrate on the production of LPG during this period. As the situation is gradually normalizing, to ensure a smooth and non-disruptive transition for the affected sectors, it has been decided to extend the said exemption by a further period of 15 days, that is, till 15th July 2026.The list of products covered remains the same as notified earlier.

The Government remains committed to supporting India's manufacturing sector. As before, the exemption is expected to benefit a wide range of sectors dependent on petrochemical feedstock and intermediates, including plastics, packaging, textiles, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, automotive components and other manufacturing segments. This will also provide relief to consumers of final products.

DRI busts trans-border gold smuggling syndicate; seizes 15 kg smuggled gold; four arrested

Press release ID 2279409 dated 30.06.2026

In a major operation the officers of the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) successfully dismantled a trans-border gold smuggling syndicate and seized 15 kg foreign-origin smuggled gold, valued at approximately Rs. 21.40 crore, operating from Delhi.
DRI officers intercepted an international courier consignment originating from Thailand at Courier Terminal, Delhi. The consignment was in the name of a firm linked to a foreign national.

A meticulous examination of the consignment declared as "worn gear", led to the recovery of eight disc-shaped pieces of foreign-origin gold, each weighing 1.5 kg, ingeniously concealed inside gear parts. In total, 12 kg smuggled foreign-origin gold was recovered from the courier consignment.

Simultaneous searches conducted at the residence of the intended recipient and the alleged mastermind resulted in the recovery of two more identical disc-shaped pieces of foreign-origin gold, each weighing 1.5 kg.

Four persons, including the mastermind, who is a repeat offender, and a foreign national have been arrested in relation with the case.

Preliminary investigations also reveal that crypto-currency was being used to transfer the money across borders to finance the smuggling.

Press release ID 2278205 dated 26.06.26

A total of nine persons involved across the entire smuggling chain, including the airport staff, her handler, three intermediaries, the melting facility operator, and three persons engaged in the melting process have been arrested. Further, about 6 kg foreign-origin smuggled gold recovered at the spot has been seized.

This case underscores the evolving sophistication of organised gold smuggling syndicates, which increasingly exploit insider access at airports and employ layered distribution networks to evade detection. In another operation at Bengaluru, DRI seized 1.8 kg 24 KT gold in paste form ingeniously concealed within the layers of garments of an international passenger. Subsequent follow up search at his residential premises led to seizure of around 1.5 kg gold jewellery, 45 kg silver, and Indian & foreign currencies. The person was arrested.

Five persons have been arrested in these operations.

Govt extends GST Appellate Tribunal appeal filing deadline to July 31 after portal rush

Centre has extended the last date for filing appeals before the Goods and Services Tax Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT) to July 31, 2026, giving taxpayers an additional month to submit their cases after a surge in filings led to technical difficulties on the GSTAT portal.

The extension applies to appeals filed under Section 112(1) read with Section 112(3) of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) law.

The revised deadline replaces the earlier cut-off of June 30, 2026, which had been notified by the government on September 17, 2025.

The decision follows recent representations from various stakeholders who flagged technical issues arising from a rush of appeals being filed on the GSTAT portal ahead of the deadline.

While noting that the original due date had been notified well in advance in September 2025, the government said filing activity had intensified sharply in recent weeks. It said 30,000 appeals were filed in the last 15 days alone, with daily filings touching a peak of 5,500 appeals.

Advising against eleventh-hour filings, the government urged taxpayers to complete their appeal submissions well in advance to ease pressure on the GSTAT portal.

The GST Appellate Tribunal serves as the first judicial appellate forum for taxpayers seeking to challenge orders issued by GST authorities after the disposal of their first appeals.

Representation seeking extension of the last date for filing appeals before GSTAT by ICAI-NIRC

GST & IDT Committee has requested the Chairman, IDT Committee, ICAI, New Delhi to urgently represent before the respective forums for the date extension of GSTAT, i.e., 30-Jun-2026.

Tax authorities appeal to reinstate ₹368.72 crore GST penalty on Tata Steel

Tata Steel Limited said tax authorities have filed an appeal seeking restoration of penalties worth Rs. 368.72 crore that were earlier dropped in a GST adjudication order, even as proceedings on the underlying demand remain stayed by the Jharkhand High Court, according to a stock exchange filing.

"One June 16, 2026, the Assistant Commissioner, Division-I, CGST & Central Excise , Jamshedpur, Jharkhand filed an appeal before the Commissioner (Appeals) of CGST & Central Excise, Ranchi against the above-mentioned Adjudication Order dated December 18, 2026, to the extend that the Adjudicating Authority has dropped the penalty amounting to Rs. 3,68,72,21,158/-," Tata Steel said in its exchange filing.

The appeal, filed on June 16 by the Assistant Commissioner, CGST & Central Excise, Jamshedpur, challenges the December 18, 2025, adjudication order to the extent it waived the penalty.

The original show-cause notice, issued in June 2025, proposed disallowance of input tax credit for FY 2018-19 to FY 2022-23, with an aggregate GST demand of about Rs. 1,007.55 crore. Of this, Tata Steel said it has already paid Rs. 514.19 crore in the normal course, leaving an alleged exposure of Rs. 493.35 crore.

In December 2025, the adjudicating authority confirmed the tax demand of Rs. 493.35 crore, imposed a penalty of Rs. 638.83 crore and applicable interested, while dropping an earlier proposed penalty of Rs. 368.72 crore. Tata Steel subsequently moved the Jharkhand High Court, which granted a stay on all further proceedings in March 2026.

"This matter is, inter-alia, contingent upon the final adjudication of the issue concerning the issuance of show cause notices for multiple periods, which is presently sub judice before the High Court," Tata Steel said.

Tata Steel added that it has a good case on merit and hence will contest the same before the Appellate Authority within the statutory timelines, noting that the development has no impact on its financial or operational position, arising from the said appeal.

Portal glitches put thousands of GST appeals at risk; experts seek deadline extension

With the June 30 deadline for filing legacy appeals before the Goods and Services Tax Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT) fast approaching , tax professionals, chartered accountants and industry bodies have urged the Finance Ministry to extend the filing window, warning that persistent technical glitches on the GSTAT portal could prevent thousands of taxpayers from filing their appeals before the deadline.

The demand comes as taxpayers seek to file appeals arising from nearly nine years of litigation accumulated during the period when the Tribunal remained non-operational. Experts said the combination of a massive backlog, voluminous documentation and continuing portal-related issues has significantly constrained taxpayers' ability to meet the deadline.

According to Aditya Singhania, Founder of Trackase, the backlog is estimated at nearly four lakh to 4.5 lakh legacy appeals, while only around 36,929 appeals have been filed nationalwide so far.

"The ground reality is deeply concerning. Against an anticipated backlog of nearly four to four and a half lakh appeals accumulated over nine years of the Tribunal's non-operationality, only around 36,929 appeals have been filed nationally as of now," Singhania said.

He attributed the slow pace of filings to the teething troubles of the newly launched e-filing portal, including server time-outs, authentication challenges, payment gateway reconciliation issues and a filing structure that requires considerable time and effort to navigate.

Experts cite portal hurdles, record backlog

According to experts and representations submitted to the Finance Ministry, taxpayers continue to face multiple technical issues on the GSTAT portal, including session expiry, repeated login failures., Aadhaar authentication problems, Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) validation failures, payment reconciliation delays and incomplete integration between the Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN) and the GSTAT portal.

Experts said taxpayers are also required to retrieve and compile extensive records accumulated over several years, including adjudication orders, invoices, reconciliations, e-way bills, ledger extracts and other supporting documents, making the filing process particularly time-consuming.

CA Nitin Bansal, State-President, BJP CA Cell Haryana, said the Finance Ministry has received several representations highlighting the practical challenges taxpayers are facing in filing appeals before the Tribunal.

"With the Tribunal becoming operational after nearly nine years, taxpayers must now prepare and file a substantial backlog of appeals within a limited window, many involving voluminous, multi-year records, even as the GSTAT e-filing portal continues to stabilise," Bansal said.

He added that extending the deadline would be revenue-neutral as the mandatory pre-deposit and other conditions would remain unchanged while ensuring genuine taxpayers are not denied their appellate remedy because of circumstances beyond their control.

Over-time extension sought

CA Sonu Goel, Chairman, Panipat Branch of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI), said a one-time extension would ensure disputes are decided on their merits rather than procedural constrints.

"One-time extension would safeguard taxpayers' right to appeal, uphold the principles of natural justice, and ensure that dispute are decided on merits rather than being defeated by procedural or technological constraints. This pragmatic relief would further reinforce the Government's commitment to ease of doing business while maintaining certainty and confidence in the GST ecosystem," Goel said.

Parag Mehta, Partner at N.A. Shah Associates LLP, said the portal continues to experience issues ranging from login failures and incorrect fee calculations to disappearing data.

"Considering the fact that the portal is not fully supporting the filing process and the number of appeals filed remains significantly lower than expected, the deadline should be extended. GSTAT is an important appellate remedy and taxpayers should not be deprived of that opportunity," Mehta said.

Bas association flags nationwide concerns

The Sales Tax Bar Association has also written to the Finance Ministry seeking an extension of the filing deadline, stating that taxpayers and tax professional across the country continue to face significant practical and technical difficulties while filing appeals through the GSTAT portal.

In its representation, the association said the present limitation period covers appellate orders accumulated over nearly nine years when the Tribunal remained non-functional, requiring taxpayers to retrieve historical records and prepare detailed documentation within a limited period.

The association highlighted recurring issues including server interruptions, repeated Aadhaar authentication and DSC validation failures, payment gateway reconciliation delays, manual duplication of information already available on the GSTN portal and challenges in uploading voluminous records.

It warned that if the deadline is not extended, thousands of taxpayers could lose the opportunity to pursue their statutory appeals because of technological and procedural constraints, potentially leading to avoidable litigation before various High Courts.

Prabhat Ranjan, Senior Director at Nexdigm, said extending the filing deadline has become "the need of the hour".

"The appellate process should be about the actual merits of the issues between both parties and not technical questions of delay. This is a taxpayer-friendly measure that will make GST dispute resolution processes more fair and credible," he said.

As of publication, the government has not announced any extension of the June 30 deadline for filing legacy GSTAT appeals. While the GSTAT has extended the period for relaxed scrutiny of filed appeals until December 31, 2026 , tax professionals, industry experts and representative bodies continue to seek a one-time extension of the filing deadline, arguing that additional time would enable taxpayers to exercise their statutory right of appeal without affecting revenue, as the mandatory pre-deposit requirements would continue to apply.

Firm moved to a new GST jurisdiction? CBIC issues clarity on how pending cases will be handled

Businesses shifting their principal place of business to a new GST jurisdiction will not have to restart pending tax proceedings with the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) clarifying that the new jurisdictional authority will take over and complete all ongoing cases from the stage at which they were left, reported PTI.

The clarification comes after the CBIC received references from field formations seeking guidance on the validity of proceedings and the authority responsible for handling cases when a registered taxpayer changes jurisdiction because of a shift in its principal place of business.

Under the circular, any action or proceeding - including investigation, audit, show cause notice or adjudication under the Central GST law - initiated by the tax officer having jurisdiction over the registered taxpayer at the time the action was undertaken (transferor jurisdiction authority) will remain valid even if the taxpayer subsequently shifts to another tax jurisdiction (transferee jurisdictional authority).

"The transferee jurisdictional authority shall act upon, give effect to, and proceed on the basis of such earlier valid action taken by the transferor jurisdictional authority, as if it had itself initiated the same," the CBIC said in the circular.

The indirect tax board further clarified that if any fresh issue comes to the notice of the earlier jurisdictional authority after the taxpayer has shifted, the tax officer should intimate the new jurisdictional officer for appropriate action.

"Where the taxable person migrates to another jurisdiction during the pendency of any action or proceeding initiated by the transferor jurisdictional authority, the transferee jurisdictional authority shall take over and conclude the same from the stage at which it stood at the time of migration/ transfer," the CBIC circular said.

The new jurisdictional officer will also have the authority to initiate and conclude any consequential proceedings arising from the case.

Rajat Mohan, Managing Partner at AMRG Global, said the clarification addresses a key procedural gap under the GST regime.

"By clearly defining the responsibilities of transferor and transferee authorities, CBIC has removed ambiguity that often resulted in jurisdictional objections and delays in adjudication," Mohan said.

Will former RBI governor Shaktikanta Das replace Nirmala Sitharaman as finance minister?

nirmala sitharaman shaktikanta das finance minister HRD
The recent meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Droupadi Murmu, followed by a meeting between Home Minister Amit Shah and the President, have fuelled speculation over a possible Union cabinet reshuffle as well as changes in the BJP's organisational structure.

According to sources, the reshuffle is likely to take place before the upcoming Monsoon Session of Parliament.

Among the names being discussed is that of former Reserve Bank of India (RBI) governor Shaktikanta Das, who is currently serving as the Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister.

Sources indicated that Das is being considered for the post of Union finance minister, while the incumbent , Nirmala Sitharaman, is expected to be shifted to the human resource development (HRD) ministry. Sitharaman has been serving as the Union Minister for finance and corporate affairs since 2019.

There has, however, been no official confirmation from either the government or the BJP regarding any proposed changes.

If the move materialises, it would bring into the Cabinet a seasoned administrator with more than four decades of experience across several areas of governance.

Das served as the 25th Governor of the RBI from 2018 to 2024. Before assuming charge at the RBI, he was a member of the 15th Finance Commission and India's G20 Sherpa.

Over the course of his career, Das has held several key positions in both the Central and State governments, handling portfolios related to finance, taxation and industries and infrastructure.

During his tenure in the finance ministry, he was closely associated with the preparation of eight Union Budgets, giving him extensive experience in public finance and economic policymaking. Besides, Das was also the senior Department of Economic Affairs official in the finance ministry during the planning and implementation phase of demonetisation.

A postgraduate from St. Stephen's College, University of Delhi, Das has also served as India's Alternate Governor to the World Bank, the Asian Development Bank, the New Development Bank, and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. He has represented India at major international forums, including the IMF, G20, BRICS, and SAARC.

57th GST Council meeting next month

57th gst council meeting
Kolkata is likely to host the 57th meeting of the GST Council next month, sources said, although the Union Finance Ministry has not yet officially confirmed the venue or the schedule. The meeting is expected to be held in the second half of July, and could take up the next round of indirect tax policy reforms.

Hosting the meeting in Kolkata holds significance as it would mark one of the first major meetings of a Constitutional federal body in West Bengal after the Assembly elections. While the GST Council independently decides its agenda and meeting schedule, the choice of Kolkata would coincide with the Centre’s broader emphasis on strengthening the State’s profile as a destination for investment and financial activity following the change in government.

New reforms

The previous GST Council meeting, held on September 3, 2025, came after a gap of nearly nine months, despite the rules providing for at least one meeting every quarter. That meeting unveiled GST 2.0, including rate rationalisation and measures to ease compliance. Tax experts now expect the council to consider another set of policy reforms, some of which were discussed during 4th Annual Seminar on Direct and Indirect Taxes of the Bengal Chamber of Commerce & Industry (BCCI).

Vivek Jalan, Chairperson of the National Fiscal Affairs and Taxation Committee of BCCI, said that in the spirit of GST 2.0, which was launched to strengthen India’s manufacturing base, the council should correct the anomaly of non‑refund of Input Service ITC under the inverted duty structure. While GST 2.0’s rate rationalisation has supported consumption, the cost pressures has deepened on manufacturers. “Addressing this gap will ensure reducing cascading taxes, boosting competitiveness and advancing India’s vision of becoming the world’s third‑largest economy by 2047,” he said.

Also, it has been proposed before the GST Council to consider reducing the GST rate on autism care centres and allied sectors from 18 per cent to 5 per cent. Such a measure under GST would ease the financial strain on families and institutions, while reinforcing the government’s vision of inclusive growth. “By aligning tax policy with compassion, the council can ensure that essential services for differently‑abled children remain affordable, accessible and sustainable, a step that truly reflects the spirit of GST reforms,” said Jalan.

Representation seeking extension of the last date for filing appeals before GSTAT by KSCAA

gstat extension
The Karnataka State Chartered Accountants Association (R) (KSCAA) has submitted a representation highlighting practical and procedural issues faced by taxpayers and professionals in relation to the Goods and Services Tax Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT). The representation focuses on addressing operational challenges and suggesting measures to enhance the efficiency, accessibility, and effectiveness of the GSTAT framework.

Considering the initial challenges faced by stakeholders in adapting to the newly operational GSTAT framework and portal, KSCAA has also requested an extension of the timelines for filing appeals and related compliances, so that taxpayers are not prejudiced on account of procedural and technical difficulties. Addressing these concerns and providing adequate transition time will facilitate smoother implementation, reduce avoidable litigation, and ensure meaningful access to the appellate remedy envisaged under the GST law.

Income tax refund: Govt plans to reduce refund processing time

The Income tax department is planning to reduce the average processing time for getting tax refunds. As per a report in Business Standard, the tax department is mulling over the reduction of days to 10 from the current 16 days. The report says that the new timeline is expected to be implemented during the current fiscal year.

"We have been receiving several queries for refund status and therefore this will be a good move to expedite the payout to taxpayers who have a refund due after e-filing. A large number of taxpayers filed in time and therefore there is an expectation for refunds to be processed sooner," said Archit Gupta, Founder and CEO, Clear.
