Petition held to raise a dominant issue of breach of principles of natural justice where attachment of the petitioner's bank occurred without affording adequate opportunity to reply; court adopted a justice-oriented approach, finding the petitioner's failure to respond attributable to bona fide reasons and unavoidable circumstances, and directed reconsideration from the stage of filing a reply to the show-cause notice. Consequence: adjudication order under Section 73(9) KGST Act, 2017 and subsequent order under Section 107(1) SGST/CGST Act are set aside and matter remitted for fresh consideration in accordance with law. – HC
