Questions about Section 42
How do I find court cases under Section 42 of the Assam Goods and Services Tax Act?
In judgments and charge sheets this section is written several ways, and each form finds a different set of orders. These search the full text of every order eCourtsIndia holds, best matches first: Assam Goods and Services Tax Act 42, section 42 Assam Goods and Services Tax Act, section 42 of the Assam Goods and Services Tax Act. Each opens the full list of orders on eCourtsIndia, where it can be narrowed by court, year and outcome.
