Kerala SGST Dept Becomes First in India to Implement Faceless Adjudication for Indirect Tax Matters

The Kerala State Goods and Services Tax (SGST) Department has become the first in India to implement faceless adjudication for indirect tax matters. This new system is designed to streamline the resolution of tax disputes, reduce physical interaction between taxpayers and tax officials, and enhance transparency and efficiency. By eliminating the need for in-person hearings, the faceless adjudication system aims to minimize discretion, curb corruption, and ensure a more standardized and fair process for taxpayers across the state.
