The HC quashed the order rejecting the petitioner's GST appeal due to time limitation. Despite the petitioner erroneously writing “NA” in the delay explanation section of GST APL-04 form, the Court found no lack of bona fide, noting the petitioner had made the required pre-deposit of Rs. 10,900/- when filing the appeal. Considering the petitioner's status as a small businessman, the 19-day delay, and that no advantage was gained by filing a belated appeal, the Court directed the appellate authority to allow the petitioner to file a condonation of delay application, thereby providing an opportunity for the appeal to be heard on merits.
