The HC quashed attachment orders dated 19.01.2013, 17.02.2014, and 01.05.2015 against directors' personal properties under the Gujarat Value Added Tax Act, 2003. Following precedent in MR Choksi, the court reiterated that corporate veil cannot be lifted without strong factual foundation, which was absent in this case.
