    Summary The High Court at Calcutta (Port Blair Circuit Bench) dismissed 51 consolidated appeals against a Single Judge's February 2026 order regarding VAT assessment notices issued to hospitality and business entities in Andaman & Nicobar Islands. The court upheld the lower court's reasoning that an alternative statutory remedy exists through the newly constituted Appellate Tribunal, and declined to exercise writ jurisdiction, noting the appellants' waiver of rights by pursuing and losing objections before the Joint Commissioner. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
