Assessment Orders Annulled Due to Lack of Personal Hearing; Court Mandates Reevaluation with Proper Procedure.

April 27, 2024

Case Laws     GST     HC

Validity of assessment orders - The High court examined the timeline of events and observed that the petitioner responded to the show cause notice in January 2024. However, the respondent authority did not afford a personal hearing to the petitioner as required by subsection (4) of Section 75 of the relevant GST enactments. Since the statutory prescription for a personal hearing was not followed, the court concluded that the impugned orders were flawed. Consequently, the court set aside the orders and directed the respondent to reconsider the matters, providing the petitioner with a reasonable opportunity, including a personal hearing. The court further nullified the recovery notice associated with the impugned orders and clarified that the stay of recovery remained in effect for pending appellate proceedings.
