2. The writ petition was filed by the respondent herein, seeking a direction for credit of the input tax balance lying in the writ petitioner’s CENVAT Credit Ledger as on 30-06-2017 to its Electronic Credit Ledger under the GST regime. It was pleaded that, to avail the transitional benefit of transfer of unavailed CENVAT credit to the electronic credit ledger under the GST regime, the writ petitioner had attempted to file GST TRAN-1 Form on 26-09-2017, as per Ext.P3, though without success.

Petitioner had received the communication “processed with error” while attempting to submit TRAN-1 Form and thereafter a complaint was sent by email to helpdesk@gst.gov.in.
