The High Court quashed the impugned order passed by the Assistant Commissioner, DGST for non-application of mind and violation of principles of natural justice. The order had discarded the petitioner's reply to the show-cause notice alleging non-declaration of output tax liability without assigning any reasons. The Court held that show-cause notices imposing further liabilities, including penalties, must be decided on merits and not in a cavalier manner. The challenge to the validity of certain notifications issued u/s 168A of the CGST Act was kept open to be raised afresh if required.
