The HC set aside the impugned Order-in-Original due to procedural irregularities that violated principles of natural justice. The order had incorrectly proceeded on the premise that the petitioner had not filed any reply to the Show Cause Notices, when in fact a response had been submitted.

The writ petition was accordingly allowed, invalidating the original order.
