When a GST demand is confirmed and the taxpayer disagrees, the remedy is appeal. GST litigation involves multiple tiers — first appeal, GSTAT, High Court, and Supreme Court. Each tier has specific procedures, timelines, and pre-deposit requirements. A professional firm ensures that the appeal is filed correctly and argued effectively.
