Sterling Tools Limited — Others, 26-06-2025: Action(s) initiated or orders passed

Sterling Tools Limited has received a Show Cause Notice from the Additional Commissioner CGST, Dehradun, alleging short payment of GST due to product classification, interest on GST related to supplementary invoices, and excess Input Tax Credit claimed. The proposed demand totals around Rs. 9.79 Cr plus interest and penalties. The company maintains its classification aligns with established principles and judicial precedents, and similar cases elsewhere have been dropped early. Sterling Tools believes it has solid legal grounds and will actively contest the notice, expecting no material financial impact at this stage.
