How to read this
The update puts three separate amounts on record: the GST demand, the penalty and the interest. It is an order passed by an appellate authority (the Joint Commissioner of State Tax, Appeals), which is why the company describes it as an appeal order. The company's stated view is that the demand is not material to its financials and that it is contesting the matter further.
