HDFC Life has received an order from the Commissioner (Appeals), Thane, confirming an earlier GST demand of Rs 132.7 crore in tax, applicable interest, and Rs 132.7 crore in penalty for the period July 1, 2017 to March 31, 2022. This order follows the original GST order received in June 2024, which the company had been contesting. The company has stated this will have no adverse material impact on its financial operations. HDFC Life plans to further contest the order by filing an appeal before the GST Appellate Tribunal.
Despite the sizeable total demand (tax + interest + penalty), the company has downplayed material impact, and the matter is being further appealed. Short-term sentiment may be mildly negative due to ongoing litigation uncertainty, but the long-term financial impact appears limited as per management.
