CBIC Assigns New GST Jurisdiction to Manage Pending Cases After Business Relocation
The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) has clarified that when a registered taxpayer shifts its principal place of business to a new tax jurisdiction, the new jurisdictional authority will assume responsibility for all pending proceedings. Actions initiated by the original jurisdiction remain valid, and the new authority will continue and conclude these cases. If new issues arise after the shift, the previous authority must inform the new jurisdiction for further action, ensuring continuity in GST-related investigations and adjudications.
