The HC affirmed the dismissal of the writ petition, emphasizing the availability of statutory appellate remedies. Penalties totaling Rs. 2,00,000/- were imposed under Section 20 of the IGST Act read with Sections 129(1)(a) and 129(6) of the CGST Act, including a vehicle penalty for conveyance of goods. The vehicle was ordered released upon payment of Rs. 50,000/- and furnishing a bond for the balance. The perishable goods, detained but not seized, were to be sold at auction within 45 days, with proceeds held in an interest-bearing account pending the appellate authority's final decision. The appellants were permitted to participate in the auction and directed to file a statutory appeal within 15 days. The order balances the risk of vehicle deterioration and goods perishability while ensuring recovery of penalties and safeguarding appellants' rights through proper appellate channels. The appeal was disposed of accordingly.
