Non-generation of e-way bill during transportation of goods led to seizure order u/s 129(3) of GST Act, imposing penalty and interest. However, it was admitted that goods were transported with relevant documents except e-way bill, which was produced before seizure order. No finding recorded regarding intention to evade tax. Relying on precedent, High Court held that in absence of intention to evade tax and production of e-way bill before seizure order, impugned orders cannot be sustained and quashed the same. Petition allowed.
