A group of ministers (GoM) set up by the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council has cleared the framework for setting up appellate tribunals to hear disputes, proposing more than one bench in a state, said people with knowledge of the matter.
The principal bench of the GST Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT) is proposed to be set up in New Delhi, while large states can have up to five benches, they said. It also suggested relaxation in criteria for appointment of members.
The GoM, headed by Haryana deputy chief minister Dushyant Chautala, is likely to submit its report to the GST Council next week, said the people cited.
A final call on recommendations will be taken by the council when it meets in September. Once the GoM’s recommendations are accepted by the council, appellate bodies can be set up in states and UTs, they added.
