Interim relief granted with stay on coercive actions against petitioner pending investigation into unauthorized changes to registration information.
Issues: Impugned order creating demand against petitioner, misuse of GST number and credentials, lack of action by authorities, petitioner's information being changed online without consent, lack of business transactions or filed returns.
The judgment pertains to the petitioner challenging an order creating a demand against them due to the misuse of their GST number and credentials. The petitioner had applied for GST registration but subsequently shut down their business, claiming no business transactions were conducted. The petitioner alleged that their online credentials were misused, with changes made to their registered email address and phone number without their knowledge. The petitioner notified the Proper Officer and the Police about the misuse, but no action was taken. The court issued notice to the respondents, directing them to file an affidavit disclosing various details, including the application form, original contact information, changes made, logging credentials creation details, bank account information, and transaction records. The respondents were also instructed to explain the actions taken by the Proper Officer and the steps taken by the concerned authorities in response to the petitioner's complaints. The matter was listed for further hearing, with a stay on any coercive action against the petitioner until the next hearing on 19.07.2024.
