Why You Need a Professional GST Appeal Consultant in Bangalore
As your dedicated GST Appeal Consultant in Bangalore, we specialize in challenging unfair tax demands and penalties. Whether your registration was cancelled or you’ve received a Show Cause Notice (SCN), navigating the litigation process requires expert legal precision.
Our role as a GST Appeal Consultant in Bangalore involves drafting robust grounds of appeal for the First Appellate Authority and representing your case at the newly formed GSTAT (Tribunal) Benches to ensure your business interests are fully protected.
The “Natural Justice” Defense
Did you get a demand order without ever seeing the notice? Many notices are buried in the ‘View Additional Notices’ tab, which taxpayers often miss.
Our Defense: We challenge these “Ex-Parte” orders on the grounds of Violation of Natural Justice. We have successfully remanded cases back to the adjudicating officer, allowing our clients to file their replies and save lakhs in unfair penalties.
Timelines & Mandatory Pre-Deposit
Mandatory Pre-Deposit (Section 107/112)
- FAA Stage: 10% of Disputed Tax.
- GSTAT Stage: Additional 10% (Total 20%).
- Penalty-Only Cases: 10% Pre-deposit (Reduced from 25%).
- ✓ ITC Can be used for Pre-deposit (SC Ruling).
Can You File an Appeal Without Fresh Pre-Deposit?
The Exceptional Scenario: If the First Appellate Authority (FAA) has already reduced your demand, your original 10% deposit might already cover the 20% required for the GSTAT (Tribunal) stage.
Recent High Court Ruling (Feb 2026): The Court held that if the earlier pre-deposit exceeds the statutory requirement of the revised demand, no additional cash can be insisted upon for filing the second appeal.
Real Results for Bangalore Businesses
ITC Rescue: ₹18 Lakhs Saved
Demand based on vendor non-filing. We proved bona fide transaction under Sec 16(2) and got the demand quashed.
Tax Rate Victory: ₹23 Lakhs
Classification dispute on IT services (18% vs 12%). We proved the correct HSN 9983 and dropped the entire demand.
Exceptional Case: Rescuing Time-Barred Appeals
The Problem: Your appeal deadline (3+1 months) has expired. The Appellate Authority has rejected your case as “Time-Barred.”
The Exceptional Remedy: We move the Hon’ble High Court of Karnataka under Article 226 (Writ Jurisdiction). Courts have repeatedly held that “Substantive Justice” outweighs “Technical Deadlines” in cases of medical emergencies, portal glitches, or lack of proper notice service.
Case Study: The Salon Defense
A local Bangalore salon received a notice for high UPI transactions before they even had GST. We proved their turnover was below the ₹20 Lakh threshold and the business was in its first year. The entire notice was dropped.
Are You a “High-Risk” Target?
The department’s AI now flags high-volume UPI payments. If you are a small business receiving notices, don’t ignore them. We specialize in proving “Threshold Exemptions” to close these matters at the early appeal stage.

FIGHT MY GST CASE NOWHigh-Stakes GST Crisis Solutions
Addressing the critical issues that other consultants might skip.
The Issue: This is an Ex-Parte Order. The department has confirmed the tax, interest, and 100% penalty because you didn’t reply.
The Solution: Not too late. We file a Writ Petition in the High Court or a Rectification Application under Sec 161. If we can prove you weren’t “effectively served” (e.g., notice hidden in ‘Additional Notices’ tab), we can get the order set aside for a fresh hearing.
The Issue: The department alleges you took ITC without receiving goods.
The Solution: We build a Documentary Shield. We present E-way bills, weighbridge receipts, bank payment proofs, and stock register entries. We argue that you are a bona fide buyer and shouldn’t be penalized for a vendor’s subsequent default.
The Issue: These are Recovery Proceedings under Section 79.
The Solution: We intervene immediately. We file an Adjournment Request or a stay application with the Appellate Authority. By paying the mandatory 10% pre-deposit, we can legally stop the department from freezing your bank accounts.
The Solution: Yes, but we use the Master Argument strategy. We win the first year as a “Leading Case,” then use that order to get the subsequent years’ demands dropped automatically. This saves you significant legal costs.
