Simultaneous investigation by the Central and State GST authorities - The petitioner argued that the DGGI's actions violated a circular mandating coordination between Central and State tax authorities in investigations. They contended that since the State tax authority had already initiated proceedings for the same period, the DGGI should not have conducted parallel proceedings. The High Court declined to express a definite opinion on the matter, as it found that the petitioner had not raised the jurisdictional issue when responding to the summons. The Court emphasized the petitioner's right to respond to the show cause-cum-demand notice issued by the DGGI and take appropriate recourse under the CGST Act.
