Instead, the court directed the detaining authority (first respondent) to complete the statutory adjudication under Section 129 of the Central and Kerala State Goods and Services Tax Acts after affording the petitioner an opportunity of hearing. The adjudication is to include consideration of the petitioner's contentions and any documents produced, and must be completed within one week from the date the authority is served with a copy of this judgment.Writ petition disposed by directing the first respondent to afford hearing and complete adjudication under Section 129 within one week from production of a copy of the judgment; merits left to the statutory adjudication.Final Conclusion: The High Court refrained from deciding the merits of the detention and directed the adjudicating authority to decide the matter afresh under Section 129 after hearing the petitioner and considering the documents, to be completed within one week from production of this judgment. The High Court of Kerala directed the first respondent to complete the adjudication under Section 129 of the GST Acts, providing the petitioner with a hearing opportunity within a week of the judgment. The detention of goods was due to transportation without records, which the petitioner claimed was due to the driver's omission. The court stated that the petitioner's contentions cannot be decided under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.
