It submitted that it was not required to make payment of CGST/SGST with regard to any transaction carried out with any unit under the SEZ. However, the department issued order under Section 73 demanding CGST/SGST on the ground that petitioner was required to make payment of CGST/SGST instead of IGST on imports from SEZ. It filed writ petition against the demand order
High Court Held
