Tax Authority's GST Demand Order Invalid Due to Missing Show Cause Notice Under Section 73 AGST Act

February 12, 2025

Case Laws GST HC

HC quashed the impugned order dated 30.12.2023 due to procedural non-compliance with Section 73 of AGST Act, 2017. The authority failed to issue a proper Show Cause Notice as mandated under Section 73(1), instead only serving a Summary Notice in Form GST DRC-01. The court emphasized that compliance with subsections (1) to (8) and (10) to (11) of Section 73, along with Rule 142(1), are prerequisite conditions for validity of orders under Section 73(9). The absence of a proper Show Cause Notice violated principles of natural justice, rendering the tax determination order legally unsustainable. The petition was disposed of in favor of the petitioner.
