GST Appellate Tribunal, Kolkata ◆ 25 Aug 2026 Appellate Tribunal
Lux Industries Ltd. v. Commissioner State Tax In favour of the assessee
Lux Industries Ltd. filed interlocutory applications before the GST Appellate Tribunal, Kolkata (INTL.APPL Nos. 1 to 21 (KLK) of 2026, 25 August 2026) seeking early hearing of 21 pending appeals. It cited substantial financial prejudice from denial of refund and prolonged pendency; procedural prerequisites were met and respondents did not oppose priority listing. Under Sections 111 and 112 CGST governing tribunal procedure and appeals, the Tribunal found a compelling case for expedited hearing and allowed the applications. Outcome favoured the assessee on listing only, without deciding substantive tax merits. Large refund-dependent appellants may cite financial prejudice where record and opposition support early board dates.
