The HC held that the Summary of Show Cause Notice (SCN) along with the attachment containing tax determination cannot be considered a valid initiation of proceedings u/s 73 without issuance of a proper SCN. The issuance of SCN and Statement of tax determination by the Proper Officer are mandatory requirements in addition to the Summary in GST DRC-01 and DRC-02. The impugned orders were contrary to Section 73 and Rule 142(1)(a) as they were passed without issuing a proper SCN. Rule 26(3) cannot be applied to Chapter XVIII as it refers only to Chapter III. The HC opined that when the statute mandates an opportunity of hearing u/s 75(4), it must be provided, and the impugned orders violated this provision. The Summary in DRC-01 cannot substitute the SCN u/s 73(1). The petition was disposed of accordingly.
