That is one-tenth of the ₹567 crore figure in the supplied headline. The company says the notice is preliminary, not a final demand, and that it is preparing to contest the allegations.
What amount does the notice state?
The components reproduced from Tenneco Clean Air India Limited’s October 6, 2026 exchange disclosure are:
| Component | Amount reported |
|---|---|
| Alleged excess input tax credit | ₹285,488,700 |
| Interest | ₹224,429,799 |
| Penalty | ₹57,117,740 |
| Total of the reported components | ₹567,036,239 (about ₹56.70 crore) |
The components add up to ₹567,036,239, not ₹567 crore. The headline figure is therefore ten times the total reflected in the disclosed breakdown. These are amounts proposed in the notice as reported in the company disclosure, not a final adjudicated liability. BazaarWatch’s reproduction of the disclosure reports the notice details.
What is the GST notice about?
The notice concerns alleged excess availment of input tax credit (ITC) during FY 2022–23. It was issued by Maharashtra’s Deputy Commissioner of State Tax. The allegation is not, by itself, proof that the company wrongly claimed credit or violated tax law.

Does a show cause notice mean Tenneco has to pay now?
No. A show cause notice asks the recipient to explain why the specified amount should be paid; it is not the same as an authority’s final determination. The company’s disclosure says: “The SCN is at a preliminary stage and does not constitute a final order or confirmed demand.” It says Tenneco is evaluating the allegations and preparing a response supported by reconciliations, records and legal submissions, and that it has factual and legal grounds to contest them.
The GST Council’s FAQ on Section 73 describes that section as applying to tax not paid or short paid, erroneous refunds, or wrongly availed or used ITC for reasons other than fraud, wilful misstatement or suppression. The section cited in a notice does not establish that the authority has made a final finding.
