Validity of determination of tax under best judgment assessment - The petitioner challenged an ex-parte assessment order arguing that their statutory return in Form GSTR-3B for March 2023 was valid and should take precedence over the assessment order. They also contended that financial constraints prevented timely filing of the return, leading to a best judgment assessment. However, the petitioner failed to avail themselves of the statutory remedy of filing an appeal against the assessment within the prescribed period.

As a result, the court dismissed the petition.
