Writ jurisdiction to condone appellate delay beyond statutory GST limits preserves the right to have cancellation appeals heard.
Case-Laws
GST
Writ jurisdiction may be used to condone delay beyond the statutory appellate ceiling under the GST limitation scheme where the delay was beyond the petitioner's control and refusal to hear the appeal would cause grave prejudice. The appellate authority remains bound by the limitation prescribed in the Act, but the High Court can grant relief in appropriate cases, including where cancellation of GST registration affects business continuity and livelihood. The delay was condoned and the appeal was restored for decision on merits after considering the statutory relaxation already available.
