The High Court dismissed the writ petition, upholding the tax authority's jurisdiction and power to issue the notice demanding tax and penalty. The court affirmed that u/s 4 of the IGST Act, officers of the State Tax are cross-authorized as proper officers for the purposes of the IGST Act, subject to any exceptions or conditions specified by the Government.
