Gujarat High Court holds that proceedings based on omitted Rule 89(4B) cannot survive in the absence of a saving clause
The Petitioner had challenged the proceedings initiated by the Department for denial of refund claims by invoking Rule 89(4B) of the CGST Rules, 2017. Rule 89(4B), along with Rule 96(10), was omitted by Notification No. 20/2024-Central Tax dated 08 October 2024, without any saving clause preserving pending proceedings.
