Dear Sir, There is two business vertical of assessee. One in Gujrat state and one in Uttar Pradesh. In 2017-18, Gujrat vertical turn over was about 1.25 cr. and Uttar Pradesh vertical turnover was about 85 lacs. On the basis of aggregate of both turnover i.e. above 2 cr., whether SGST AO can impose penalty on Gujrat Vertical + Uttar Pradesh vertical turnover @.50 %. for non filing GSTR 9. or imposing penalty on Gujrat Vertical would be exercise of extraterritorial jurisdiction? Please clarify
