Section 174(2)(e) of the CGST Act saved investigation, inquiry, assessment, adjudication and other legal proceedings after omission of Chapter V of the Finance Act, 1994.

The writ challenge based on repeal was rejected, and the assessee was left to pursue adjudication independently in accordance with law.
