Kun United Motors Pvt. Ltd., vs Assistant Commissioner Of Central Tax ... on 21 August, 2020
10. As stated earlier, it is not a case where the
petitioner has not made any efforts in getting TRAN-1
form uploaded in the GST portal. Efforts were made in
December, 2017 and thereafter in the years 2018 and
2019, which is evident from the communications referred
to earlier. Therefore, non-filing of screenshots in our
view cannot be a ground to reject the request on the
ground that no effort was made, since the
communication between the petitioner and the
respondents is not in dispute. As observed in Uninav
Developers Pvt. Ltd.'s case (3 supra) the GST system is
still in a trial and error phase and it will be too much of a
burden to place on the Assessee to expect them to
comply with the requirement of the law where they are
unable to even connect to the system on account of
network failures or other failures. Further, question of
preserving screenshots by everyone may not be possible
having regard to the conditions prevailing in the country
and also the facilities that are available for an
uneducated assessee.
