Analysis: The judgment by the High Court of Allahabad involved a petition against an order issued by the Deputy Commissioner withholding gate-passes due to alleged non-payment of GST as per the provisions of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017. The petitioners sought permission to respond to the order and requested a fresh consideration of their case. The counsel for the petitioners expressed satisfaction with approaching the fourth respondent by submitting a reply to the letter dated 1.8.2018. The respondents did not object to the petitioners' request for a fresh review of the matter.
