GST Litigation
Welcome to RGM Law Associates, your dedicated legal partner specializing in Goods and Services Tax (GST) litigation. We understand that navigating the complexities of GST-related disputes requires strategic expertise. Our experienced team is committed to providing comprehensive solutions tailored to your unique needs.
Understanding GST Litigation
In straightforward terms, GST litigation encompasses all legal matters related to GST, ranging from transitioning credits from the previous tax system to disputes over input tax credit eligibility, denial of refund claims, and issues with output tax liability payments.
When it comes to GST compliance, including filing returns, claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC), and pursuing GST refunds, businesses often find themselves entangled in disputes that may later escalate into litigation.
It’s crucial for taxpayers to be aware of the risk of audits by tax authorities. During these audits, the authorities scrutinize tax positions, payments, and compliances. While audits are not meant to inconvenience taxpayers, any defaults detected may lead to penalties and interest implications for non-payment or short payment of taxes.
In situations where disagreements arise post-audits or assessments, a fair appeal mechanism is in place to provide an impartial resolution. RGM Law Associates ensures that our clients are well-informed and supported throughout the entire litigation process.
