2024 (3) TMI 1219 - MADRAS HIGH COURTValidity Of Show cause notice - No reasonable opportunity provided - tax demand as a condition for remand - HELD THAT:- On examining the show cause notice and impugned order, it is clear that the entire tax liability is with regard to disparity between the GSTR-3B and GSTR-2B returns. The petitioner has, albeit subsequent to the issuance of such order, explained that ITC was validly availed of by submitting documents in support thereof. Undoubtedly, the petitioner was negligent in not doing so upon receipt of the intimation and show cause notice. Nonetheless, if the explanation of the petitioner is valid, the interest of justice would be prejudiced unless the petitioner is provided an opportunity to explain the alleged disparity. Thus, albeit by putting the petitioner on terms, the impugned order calls for interference. Therefore, the impugned order is quashed subject to the condition that the petitioner remits 10% of the disputed tax demand as agreed to within a maximum period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. W.P. is disposed of on the above terms.
