Reverse-charge supplies treated as forward-charge GST without show-cause notice violates s.75(7); appellate order set aside and remitted
Case-Laws
GST
Notice to show-cause confines adjudication: an order cannot extend beyond issues specified in the notice and Section 75(7) manifests that principle; holding that treating reverse-charge supplies as forward-charge without such notice violated statutory mandate, and that the appellate authority erred in deeming this a mere “technical” quantification-consequence: appellate order set aside and matter remitted. Natural justice and disclosure: where the notice relies on GST back-office data within tax authorities' special knowledge, the assessee must be afforded access and an effective opportunity to meet the case-consequence: fresh show-cause/adjudication directed with necessary disclosure and hearing; limitation cannot be raised later unless available at initial notice. – HC
