A show cause notice that merely alleges non-filing of returns for six months, without identifying the relevant period or defaults, is inadequate. Rule 22 read with FORM GST REG-19 obligates the Proper Officer to state clear grounds for cancellation; an order reciting only absence of reply and marking the case as &#8220;Others&#8221; shows non-application of mind and violates natural justice.
