Karnataka High Court
Where a registered civil contractor executed pre-GST works and after GST rollout paid differential GST, as State received benefit of works post-GST implementation, contractor had enforceable right thereto, thus, recipient municipal authority was liable to reimburse GST-attributable differential subject to verification
Karnataka High Court
Where property acquired by compulsory acquisition for highway widening included land with attached structure and compensation was awarded, deduction of GST from compensation was unwarranted since such expropriation did not constitute a supply of goods or services under GST scheme and no statutory basis existed for GST levy, thus GST deduction was ultra vires and liable for refund
Karnataka High Court
Where a contractor under a works contract faced additional tax burden due to transition from VAT to GST, having paid differential GST post-regime change, contractor acquired legal right to reimbursement from State, and State as beneficiary is obliged to reimburse the contractor to the extent of GST-attributable liability, subject to verification
Karnataka High Court
Where civil contractor executed road works under contract with State and, following GST replacing VAT, paid differential GST due to regime change, contractor became entitled to reimbursement of additional GST from beneficiary State entity, as liability to bear such tax rests on service recipient and reimbursement right extends only to tax attributable to GST regime introduction, subject to verification and law
Karnataka High Court
Where petitioner, a Class-I civil contractor, executed government works awarded before GST replacing VAT and paid differential GST arising from transition, petitioner acquired legal right to reimbursement of such differential tax, with State as recipient of works contract service being bound by earlier rulings to reimburse only differential attributable to GST introduction subject to due verification
Karnataka High Court
Where Class-I contractor executed pre-GST works contract for State and, due to GST implementation, incurred additional GST liability which was paid to authorities, contractor was legally entitled to reimbursement of GST-induced differential from State, as State benefitted from contract and consistent decisions require recipient to bear increased tax incidence subject to verification of claim
Karnataka High Court
Where a Class-I contractor, after award of works contract before GST regime, paid differential GST arising from transition from VAT to GST and sought reimbursement from State which remained unresolved, State as service recipient was obligated to reimburse such differential GST attributable to regime change since petitioner had executed work and discharged due tax as per law
