The Commercial Taxes Department in Bengaluru on Wednesday succeeded in restoring the GST identification number to a Bengaluru-based defense components supplier who had been waiting for over two months to retrieve the number.
Sources in the department said that the technical glitch in the GSTN, which had prevented restoration of suspended GSTIN to the company even after paying GST and penalty, had been rectified.
on Wednesday, Hindu had reported exposing the plight of Girish L, director of ADD Engineering Components India Limited, a component supplier for defense projects like Light Combat Aircraft Tejas and BrahMos. The Commercial Taxes Department had suspended the GSTIN of the company in March 2021 after companies failed to pay GST due to COVID-19 related restrictions on closure of the companies. Though he paid ₹20 lakh including a fine of ₹2.5 lakh in December 2021, there was a technical snag behind restoring his GSTIN. Meanwhile, Mr. Girish could not generate e-way bill for supply of his components without GSTIN.
