GSTAT Bengaluru
Where consignor's goods were detained solely for e-way bill expiry due to a software error misreading destination, though all documents including correct invoices and lorry receipt were available, tax was charged and physical verification revealed no discrepancies or intent to evade, invoking detention and penalty under section 129 for this procedural lapse was invalid and demands were unsustainable
Allahabad High Court
Where goods in transit were detained solely for expiry of e-way bill validity due to mechanical breakdown, driver change and transporter lapse during lockdown, with no discrepancy in invoice, builty or tax and absence of intent to evade, such mere expiry did not justify levy of tax or penalty and impugned orders were quashed with refund per law
Calcutta High Court
Where goods in transit were penalized at 200 percent of tax solely due to non- extension of e-waybill at time of police interception and materials showed no other lapse, such penalty violated principles of natural justice and authorities were directed to refund recovered penalty as only failure was non-extension of e-waybill validity during transit
GSTAT Lucknow
Where registered dealer transporting motorcycles was intercepted for absence of e-way bill which was generated and produced nine minutes later, and goods were identifiable with genuine records without any evidence of suppression, undervaluation or intent to evade, mere procedural lapse did not justify penalty and orders for penalty and detention were unsustainable in law
