Where a GST or customs appeal goes
| We represent you at these stages | Advocates argue; we prepare the record | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Matter | Notice or order | First appeal | Second appeal | High Court | Supreme Court |
| GST | Proper officer | Appellate Authority | GST Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT) | High Court | Supreme Court |
| Customs | Adjudicating authority | Commissioner (Appeals) | CESTAT | High Court | Supreme Court |
Limitation runs from the date the order is served, and a pre-deposit is required for GST and customs appeals. In customs, disputes on classification and valuation go from CESTAT directly to the Supreme Court. Send us any order the same day you receive it.
