Retrospective GST registration cancellation set aside; authority must allow reply and reconsideration, petitioner permitted to respond by 15 October 2025
Case-Laws
GST
The HC set aside the impugned order of retrospective cancellation of the petitioner's GST registration, finding that retrospective cancellation is unsustainable where the show-cause notice did not contemplate retrospective effect and principles of natural justice were infringed by the petitioner's failure to file a reply and to avail personal hearing. The court reiterated its established view that retrospective withdrawal of registration cannot be upheld absent explicit notice. The matter is remitted for reconsideration: the petitioner is permitted to file a reply to the SCN by 15 October 2025, after which the authority shall proceed in accordance with law. Petition allowed and impugned order dated 22 November 2024 set aside.
