Gopal Snacks Limited received a Show Cause cum Demand Notice from the Office of the Commissioner of CGST, Nagpur-II on April 7, 2025, raising a tax demand of ₹12.28 crore (plus applicable interest and penalty). The issue is about the GST classification of its 'Snack Pallet' and 'Extruded Snacks' products — the tax department claims these should fall under HSN code 19059030 instead of the 21069090 used by the company. The company says this is an industry-wide classification matter and plans to appeal before the appellate authority, calling its case strong on merits. This is an update to an earlier intimation from March 8, 2025. The company has committed to informing exchanges of any further developments.
A potential ₹12.28 crore outflow (plus interest and penalty) could weigh on profitability if the appeal fails, but the matter is still being contested. Short-term stock sentiment may see some pressure, though the company views the demand as contestable and not yet a settled liability.
