In a significant development, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) authorities have withdrawn a massive ₹32,000 crore notice issued to Infosys Limited, one of India’s largest IT services companies. This move comes as a major relief for the tech giant, which had been under scrutiny over alleged discrepancies in its GST filings.
The notice, issued earlier this year, was based on the authorities’ assessment of Infosys’ tax filings, raising concerns about potential evasion or misreporting under the GST framework. The massive sum involved had stirred up discussions in both corporate and legal circles, highlighting the complexities and challenges of GST compliance for large corporations.
However, following detailed explanations and clarifications provided by Infosys, the GST department has decided to retract the notice. The decision to withdraw the notice was reportedly based on a thorough review of the submissions made by Infosys, which demonstrated that the discrepancies were more technical in nature rather than indicative of any deliberate wrongdoing.
