HC dismissed petition of charitable trust operating marriage hall challenging GST liability. Trust failed to register under GST Act from July 2017 to January 2020, attempting to evade tax by issuing receipts as donations.

Both Original Authority and Appellate Authority correctly applied law, finding deliberate tax evasion through non-registration and mischaracterization of payments. Trust liable for unpaid taxes and penalties, with no grounds for judicial interference.
