Section 75(7) prevents confirmation of an input tax credit demand on a ground not set out in the show-cause notice. Where the notice alleged ineligibility only under section 16(2)(aa), which was inapplicable to the relevant period, adjudication could not instead rely on the separate condition under section 16(2)(c) that suppliers must pay tax to the Government. Mere reproduction of section 16(2)(c), without allegations or supporting facts identifying its breach, does not provide adequate notice. A provision protecting proceedings from formal defects cannot cure this substantive defect in the notice and adjudication process.
