The HC allowed the petition challenging the order of the appellate authority dismissing the appeal. Despite being granted an opportunity to produce documents, the appellant did not do so. However, the HC held that under the Bihar Goods and Services Tax Act, particularly Section 107(8)-(12), the appellate authority has a duty to examine the merits and grounds raised in the appeal memorandum.
