Writ jurisdiction was declined where a statutory appellate remedy under GST was available. The petitioner was permitted to file the appeal within the time granted, along with a delay condonation application and the statutory pre-deposit, and was allowed to urge all factual and legal grounds before the appellate authority. The appellate authority was directed to consider the reasons for delay and, if satisfied, decide the appeal on merits. Coercive steps pursuant to the impugned garnishee notices were stayed only for the limited period granted to file the appeal.
