Assessment order against a deceased assessee is void; fresh proceedings may continue only against properly notified legal heirs.
Case-Laws
GST
Assessment proceedings issued in the name of a deceased assessee were unsustainable where the death certificate and legal heir certificate showed that death had occurred before the assessment order. The High Court set aside the impugned order because it could not validly be made against a dead person, but left the respondent free to start fresh proceedings against all legal representatives after issuing notice in accordance with the legal heir certificate.
