In a relief to contractors, Karnataka HC asks govt bodies to bear differential GST burden

The dispute between contractors and government arose due to the entering of works contract before July 1, 2017, when the GST replaced the VAT regime. There were also situations where work was completed during VAT regime, but payments were made during the GST regime; contracts were entered during VAT regime but executed both during both VAT and GST regimes or bids were invited during the VAT regime but were finalised during the GST regime.
