Denial of a personal hearing before adverse GST assessment was held to violate principles of natural justice and the hearing requirement under Section 75(4).

The Court treated the unanswered request for personal hearing as determinative, set aside the assessment orders, and remanded the matters for fresh decision after granting an opportunity of personal hearing.
