It was also observed that there was a large accumulation of input tax credit of CESS for the said taxpayer. On inspection/search, it was found that the taxpayer had under-reported Cess liability of approx. Rs. 15 Crones. Accepting the underreporting, the taxpayer deposited Rs. 12.82 Crore on the spot through cash and credit. Further, the investigation is in progress.

In another case, an infrastructure start-up company paid Rs. 151 Came plus applicable interest for taking excess input tax credit in their FORM GSTR-3B as compared with an input tax credit available in GSTR-2A. Taxpayers are requested to please ensure that there are no gaps/mismatches in:
