Retrospective cancellation of GST registration upheld where statute permits cancellation from any date and suspension during proceedings.
Case-Laws
GST
Retrospective cancellation of GST registration was treated as permissible because section 29(2) expressly allows cancellation from any date, and the second proviso was read within the same scheme to permit suspension during pending cancellation proceedings. The challenge to retrospective suspension was therefore rejected, and no basis was found to question section 29(2) or rule 21(a). The notice was also considered procedurally fair because it allowed a reply and personal hearing, so the writ challenge to the show-cause notice was declined and the objections were left to be raised before the authority.
