———–Answer MCQ Self Challenge # 0057———–

 

Dear Professional Seniors & Friends,

Warm Greetings!

 

This post of MCQ is on provisions relating to confiscation of goods or conveyances under GST Act.

 

Answer to MCQ 57.1: C) Confiscation can be done only after providing opportunity of being heard.

 

Answer to MCQ 57.2: B) 20 consignments for invalid eway bills and for which no documents are available.

 

Practical Analysis for MCQ 57.1:-

  1. Circular No. 41/2018 dtd 13/04/2018 issued by CBIC clarifies the procedure for interception of conveyances for inspection, detention, release, confiscation of goods and conveyance in movement.
  2. The circular is very clear that in case the proposed tax and penalty are not paid within seven days from the date of the issue of the order of detention in FORM GST MOV-06, action under section 130 of the CGST Act shall be initiated by serving a notice in FORM GST MOV10, proposing confiscation of the goods and conveyance and imposition of penalty.
  3. Also, where the proper officer is of the opinion that such movement of goods is being effected to evade payment of tax, he may directly invoke section 130 of the CGST Act by issuing a notice proposing to confiscate the goods and conveyance in FORM GST MOV-10.
  4. But point 2(m) of said circular says that no order for confiscation of goods or conveyance, or for imposition of penalty, shall be issued without giving the person an opportunity of being heard.

Based on the above analysis, correct answer MCQ 57.1: C) Confiscation can be done only after providing opportunity of being heard.

 

Practical Analysis for MCQ 57.2:-

  1. Circular No. 49/2018 dtd 21/06/2018 issued by CBIC which seeks to modify and clarify certain things earlier issued in Circular No. 41/2018 i.e. procedure for interception of conveyances for inspection, detention, release, confiscation of goods and conveyance in movement.
  2. Government through this circular clarified that only such goods and/or conveyances should be detained/confiscated in respect of which there is a violation of the provisions of the GST Acts or the rules made there under.
  3. Not carrying eway bill or invalid eway bill is violation of Rule 138A of CGST Rules.

 

Based on the above analysis, correct answer MCQ 57.2: B) 20 consignments for invalid eway bills and for which no documents are available.

 

(Disclaimer: The objective of the MCQ post is just to discuss the concept, it may happen, by change of facts, the answer may be different. Please do not treat this as professional opinion; you can definitely have your own opinion.)
