The Anup Engineering Limited’s appeal against a Gujarat GST Department demand of ₹3.32 crore was allowed, and the demand was set aside, according to a report published on October 4, 2026. The company reportedly said the outcome had no financial impact. The available report does not establish why the Appellate Authority allowed the appeal or what happened to interest.

What was the GST demand against Anup Engineering?

The original demand came from a Gujarat GST Department order under section 74(1) of the CGST Act, 2017. In its February 2025 disclosure, the company said it considered the demand not maintainable and planned to appeal to the First Appellate Authority. Company disclosure, February 2025

Demand component Amount stated in the 2025 disclosure
Ineligible input tax credit (ITC) ₹1.33 crore
IGST on ocean freight ₹0.33 crore
Penalty ₹1.66 crore
Total of listed components ₹3.32 crore, plus interest

The component amounts total ₹3.32 crore. The disclosure also mentioned interest; it did not include a separate interest amount in that total.

What did the Appellate Authority decide?

ScanX reported on October 4, 2026, that an Appellate Authority order dated October 3 allowed the company’s appeal and set aside the ₹3.32 crore demand. The appellate order itself is not available in the cited reporting, so the outcome is attributable to that report and the company disclosure it describes—not independently confirmed from the order text.
