Where appellant, a works contractor for Government departments and public authorities, had discharged entire GST liability before initiation of proceedings but demand of interest and penalty was confirmed under section 74 and first appeal was rejected on limitation without examining merits, operation of appellate order and recovery of disputed demand were to be stayed during pendency of section 112 appeal as recovery despite compliance with pre-deposit would defeat appellate remedy and cause irreparable prejudice

Where assessee deposited pre-deposit at first appeal stage exceeding percentage of tax remaining in dispute after first appellate order, no further pre- deposit was required for admission of Tribunal appeal since earlier payment equalled or surpassed statutory requirement based on surviving disputed tax, rendering any fresh deposit unjustified
