The Delhi High Court has issued notices to Infosys Ltd and Tech Mahindra Ltd, which happen to be information technology (IT) support contractors of the Goods & Services Tax Network (GSTN) portal.
The notices were issued after the court heard a writ petition which challenged various issues relating to technical flaws, glitches and limitations in the online portal system evolved by GSTN.
Earlier, the Delhi High Court had directed the chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of GSTN to be responsible to monitor and ensure redressal of all grievances relating to the GSTN, including IT related grievances in the working of the GSTN network until the constitution of public grievance committee.
A petitioner had raised several issues related with the GSTN portal, including non-availability of GSTR 9, 9A, 9C for FY2018-19, failed attempts to upload annual return for FY2017-18 and non-availability of email ids and telephone numbers of nodal officers on the GST website.
Rejecting the tax department's justification for the non-operationalization of the requisite return form for the FY2018-19 because of due-date extension and preventing confusion in the petitioner's mind, the HC opined that “it should be possible to upload the returns for both the years 2017-18 and 2018-19 simultaneously”.
“Financial year, in respect of each year, ends on March 31 and it should be possible for those assessed to upload their forms soon thereafter. They should not have to wait for filing of the returns in the prescribed forms till the last date,” the bench stated.
The case is scheduled to be heard next on 20 February 2020.
