C. NO. 1/1-ST-L&P/2001 DATED 19 TH OCTOBER, 2001
SUBJECT:- UNLAWFUL REFUND CLAIMS BY SPINNERS AND
EXPORTERS
I am directed to refer to the subject noted above and to say that it has come to the
notice of the Board that certain spinners and exporters are purchasing cotton from ginners
without payment of sales tax under the Special Procedure for Ginning Industry Rules,
1996, but are taking refunds of sales tax on the same. It has been reported that the refund
sanctioning Collectorates do not respond positively expeditiously to requests by the
Collectorate where ginner is located to recover the outstanding amounts from pending
refund claims. In some cases, refund was paid despite reporting the fact of default, which
is against the provisions of section 10(3) of the Sales Tax Act, 1990.
2. In this context, you are requested to kindly inform the particulars of all
cases where cotton was purchased under the Special Procedure for Ginning Industry
Rules, 1996 but sales tax was not paid within the stipulated time. The statement should
mention the names of the units involved (ginner and purchaser), date of supply/invoice,
amount of sales tax involved whether the concerned Collectorate was informed and its
response, besides any other relevant information. Refund sanctioning Collectorates
should also inform action taken on requests for recovery from such units.
