No overlapping proceedings under Section 6(2)(b) were established, because the petitioner did not show that any other competent authority had already initiated action on the same subject matter. The Court held that search and seizure under Section 67, including sealing of premises when required, and provisional attachment under Section 83 were within the CGST framework.
