The petitioner claimed ineligible input tax credit on purchases from the supplier, Tvl. Bharat Marketing, during 2022-2023. The supplier was alleged to be a non-existent entity engaged in bill trading activities, as per an inspection report received from CBIC during a Special All India Drive targeting fake registrations and beneficiaries of bill trading. Consequently, the petitioner's ITC was blocked on 19.07.2024, and a show cause notice in Form GST DRC-01 was issued on 16.08.2024, with the summary uploaded on 21.08.2024.

The HC dismissed the petition, stating that the appropriate course of action would be for the petitioner to submit a response to the show cause notice before seeking judicial intervention.
