Writ maintainability and alternate remedy bar applied where amalgamation plea raised for the first time in GST dispute.
Case-Laws
GST
Writ challenge to GST show cause notice, order-in-original and demand was not entertained where the petitioner raised an amalgamation-based plea for the first time in the writ court. The text notes that the petitioner had already replied on merits to the input tax credit dispute before the department, but had not disclosed the fresh incorporation or new GST registration, and had also not replied to the show cause notice or attended personal hearings. Because the challenge turned on disputed facts better examined by the statutory forum, the petitioner was relegated to the appellate remedy, with liberty to file an appeal within the stipulated time with the required pre-deposit and to seek condonation of delay, which was to be considered sympathetically.
