Case-Laws
GST
The HC set aside the ex-parte assessment and penalty orders dated 26.12.2024 passed under the GST Act, holding that non-service of physical notices and failure to provide an opportunity of hearing violated principles of natural justice. The petitioner had been subjected to a late fee under Section 47, and the imposition of penalty under Section 125 without proper notice was found unsustainable. The matter was remanded to the first respondent for fresh consideration in accordance with law, ensuring compliance with procedural fairness. The petition was allowed by way of remand.
