Legal Challenge Succeeds: Notice Invalidated Due to Procedural Flaws and Violation of Natural Justice Principles
Case-Laws
GST
HC allowed the petition challenging the SCN issued beyond prescribed limitation period. The court found procedural irregularities in the notice, specifically the lack of opportunity for hearing, which violated principles of natural justice. The impugned order was set aside and remanded back to the Adjudicating Authority. The Petitioner was granted permission to file a reply by 15th July, 2025, with a mandatory personal hearing to be provided thereafter. The challenge to the extension of limitation through Notification 56/2023 remains pending before the Supreme Court, which influenced the HC's decision to provide procedural fairness.
