..... revocation application is a direction to the petitioner to file the return from April 2023 to date. Clearly, the show cause notice for rejection of the application for revocation is also defective and not sustainable. The consequent order to the application for revocation dated 02.04.2024 also does not contain any reason it merely states that reply has not been filed to the notice dated 12.03.2024 and the application is accordingly rejected. There is complete non application of mind. The entire proceedings initiated by the respondent are flawed and the error commenced from the issuance of the the very show cause notice dated 11.10.2023 as noticed hereinabove. Since the very show cause notice i.e. the seed of the proceedings was defected, a .....

..... show cause notice is defective and cannot be sustained. 8. The consequential order dated 12.01.2024 of the show cause notice does not state any reasons for the cancellation. It merely states that reference may be had to the show cause notice dated 11.10.2023 and thereafter states that the effective date of cancellation of registration is 12.01.2024. Said order does not even specifically direct the cancellation of the registration. It merely refers to the show cause notice and a date of cancellation.

Since the very show cause notice i.e. the seed of the proceedings was defected, all proceedings emanating there from are thus unsustainable. There is also complete non application of mind and the show cause notices and orders have been passed in a mechanical manner. 12. Cancellation of GST registration has a serious impact on the registrant and its ability to carry on business.
