Bombay HC sets aside Rs 170 Cr GST demand against Go Digit, orders fresh adjudication The Bombay High Court has provided major relief to Go Digit General Insurance by setting aside a Rs 170.29 crore GST demand raised by the Chennai South Commissionerate of GST & Central Excise. The order, dated July 4, includes Rs 154.8 crore in alleged tax dues and Rs 15.48 crore in penalties for the period from July 2017 to March 2022. According to Go Digit’s filing accessed from the National Stock Exchange (NSE), the High Court noted that the GST Council had already discussed this industry-wide issue and issued related circulars. Now, the court has asked the tax department to review the case again, keeping those guidelines in mind, and complete the process within three months. This update comes just a few months after Go Digit listed on the stock market. The tax demand was earlier mentioned in its Red Herring Prospectus under “Material Tax Proceedings.” The company said it is reviewing legal options and is waiting for the official court order to be delivered. Importantly, the company clarified that the case is part of a broader issue impacting the insurance industry at large and that no financial implications arise at this stage due to the High Court's intervention. The insurance company recorded a 2.2X increase in profits to Rs 116 crore during the last quarter of the previous fiscal year (Q4FY25). Meanwhile, for the full fiscal year (FY25), its profits surged 133% to Rs 425 crore.
