Remand for fresh adjudication under section 74 GST Act after non-speaking order rejected reply without addressing grounds
Case-Laws
GST
The HC allowed the writ petition, holding the adjudication order to be a non-speaking order lacking application of mind; the authority had merely rejected the petitioner's reply as “not satisfactory” without addressing the grounds raised. The petition was remitted for de novo adjudication of the show-cause notice under section 74 of the GST Act, with directions that the Assistant Commissioner of State Tax decide the matter on merits, independently and after appreciating the petitioner's contentions, and without being influenced by an earlier advance ruling rendered to a related proprietor which was not challenged. The petition stands allowed by way of remand.
