Demand and penalty for alleged receipt of invoices without actual movement of goods required proof of genuine physical supply, not mere assumptions. Where the taxpayer produced tax invoices along with e-way bills and lorry receipts, the text states that this created a prima facie case and that the authority should have verified the transport records before confirming liability. The demand could not rest on presumptions, conjecture, or ipse dixit; fresh verification of lorry numbers, e-way bills, invoices, and toll passage was required. The impugned order was set aside and the matter remitted for a fresh decision on merits after such verification.
