The Goods and Services Tax (GST) Department has issued a substantial tax demand of ₹124.65 crore to SpiceJet for allegedly failing to file GST returns for multiple months. This action follows a provisional assessment conducted under Section 62 of the Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST) and State Goods and Services Tax (SGST) Acts of 2017. The department's officials stated that SpiceJet has repeatedly committed irregularities in filing its returns, leading to significant tax demands for the months of November through March. Specifically, the airline owes ₹44.44 crore for November, ₹43.79 crore for December, and smaller amounts for the subsequent months. Additionally, the GST Department has issued a show-cause notice proposing the cancellation of SpiceJet's GST registration due to ongoing non-compliance. This notice was issued on May 25, 2026, and the airline has not yet resolved its pending compliance issues. If SpiceJet fails to promptly file its outstanding returns and meet its statutory obligations under GST law, further actions will be initiated as per the regulations.
