Karnataka HC orders refund of Rs 10 crore GST

The Karnataka High Court has ordered the government to refund Rs 10 crore to a businessman.

The businessman had paid this money as Goods and Services Tax (GST), but he said he was forced to pay it during a raid at his home.

The court agreed that the payment was not voluntary and ordered the money to be returned.

The court also said that there was no proper notice or legal process before the raid.

The businessman's home in Bengaluru was searched, and some items were taken, but later returned.

The court's decision was made public this week.
