Court clarifies competency challenge, allows future contest, corrects typographical error in adjudication order
The court addressed the petitioner's challenge regarding the competency of the officer passing the adjudication order, noting that as the demand was dropped, the issue was not crucial. The petitioner was granted the liberty to contest if the order was reconsidered. Additionally, the court acknowledged and directed the correction of a typographical error in the order regarding Mr. Hriday Singh's designation as an officer of the Income Tax Department instead of his correct rank as Assistant Commissioner, CGST.
Issues: Competency of the officer passing adjudication order, Typographical error in the order
Competency of the Officer Passing Adjudication Order: The petitioner challenged the adjudication order, claiming it was issued by an officer not competent to do so. The petitioner argued that the order should have been passed by the Commissioner (Adjudication), CGST, Delhi (East), not the Addl. Commissioner (Adjudication). However, the respondents confirmed that the demand mentioned in the show cause notice had been dropped. The court noted that since the demand was no longer valid, the issue of competency was not crucial at that moment. The court allowed the petitioner the liberty to contest the matter if the respondents were to reconsider the order in the future.
Typographical Error in the Order: The petitioner also pointed out a typographical error in the order dated 05.04.2021, where Mr. Hriday Singh was mistakenly referred to as an officer of the Income Tax Department instead of his actual rank as Assistant Commissioner, CGST. The court acknowledged this error and directed the correction of the order to reflect Mr. Hriday Singh's correct designation. The correction was to be made in both the body of the order and alongside the cause title where appearances were recorded.
In conclusion, the court disposed of the application by addressing both the issues raised by the petitioner. The court clarified that the competency issue was not a concern since the demand had been dropped, but allowed the petitioner the right to contest if the order was reviewed in the future. Additionally, the court ordered the correction of the typographical error in the order regarding Mr. Hriday Singh's designation.
