Summary
- GSTAT Bengaluru has upheld the penalty against Heramb Enterprises for violating Section 129 of the KGST Act, confirming that the absence of required documents during a vehicle interception indicates an intention to evade taxes.
- The case arose after a vehicle carrying plywood was intercepted on October 6, 2020, while unloading at REC Flow Technology LLP without proper invoices or e-way bills.
- The Tribunal dismissed the appeal, stating that generating documents post-interception was merely an afterthought and did not absolve the appellant of responsibility.
- This ruling reinforces strict compliance with GST regulations and highlights the consequences of procedural lapses in tax documentation.
