Raj Packaging Industries Limited, a key player in the packaging sector, has recently provided an important update regarding its ongoing GST litigation. This follows up on a previous intimation dated April 18, 2025, where the company disclosed an order passed by the Assistant Commissioner (ST) of Aghapura Circle, Commercial Tax Department, Hyderabad, for the fiscal year 2020-21 under Section 74 of the GST Act. The company, however, has decided to challenge the validity of this order and has taken legal recourse to do so.

On April 26, 2025, Raj Packaging filed a writ petition before the Hon'ble High Court of Telangana to quash the order passed by the Assistant Commissioner. The company is challenging the order on the grounds that it lacks merit and is based on several technical reasons. The petition has been officially accepted by the court and has been numbered WP 12857/2025. It will now be listed for its first hearing shortly, marking the next critical step in this legal process.

The company has emphasized that it remains confident in its case, asserting that it has strong legal grounds and facts to support its position. Based on the legal advice it has received, Raj Packaging believes that the order passed under the GST Act is not justified, and the company expects a favorable outcome from the court. The company's management remains hopeful that the Telangana High Court will find merit in their arguments and quash the order as requested.

The update about the writ petition comes as part of the company's ongoing commitment to keep its stakeholders informed about critical legal developments affecting its operations. It is in line with the company's compliance with SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015, which requires such updates to be disclosed to the public to ensure transparency and informed decision-making by investors and stakeholders.

Raj Packaging continues to believe that the dispute with the Commercial Tax Department is based on a misunderstanding or an error in the order, and the company’s legal team is confident of overturning the decision in the court of law. The company’s legal team, along with its management, is closely monitoring the situation and remains prepared for the next steps in this litigation process.

In the meantime, Raj Packaging has reassured its investors and stakeholders that the situation is being handled with utmost diligence and seriousness. The company is committed to ensuring that its legal rights are protected, and it remains optimistic about securing a favorable decision in the future. As the matter progresses, the company will provide further updates to keep everyone informed about any changes or developments in the case.

This litigation represents a significant moment in the company's legal and financial history, and it highlights Raj Packaging's ongoing efforts to address any challenges or disputes with a strong focus on corporate governance and legal compliance. The company's commitment to its stakeholders is evident in its proactive communication regarding the matter, and it is working diligently to resolve the issue at hand.

As this legal process unfolds, Raj Packaging Industries is confident that the final judgment will reflect the true merits of the case, leading to a favorable outcome that benefits the company and its investors.
