Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Andhra Pradesh High Court's ruling regarding the inclusion of credit notes in the taxable turnover under Section 22(1) and Section 23(1) of the Andhra Pradesh General Sales Tax Act, 1957. The Court established that the amounts represented by credit notes issued by manufacturers to distributors are part of the sale consideration and thus should be included in the taxable turnover. The Court affirmed the High Court's finding that the Revenue's position was correct, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
