The SC dismissed the Special Leave Petition, affirming the High Court's directive that the petitioners must pursue their statutory appeal within 30 days, accompanied by the requisite pre-deposit. The Court emphasized the availability of an alternative remedy and underscored the principles of natural justice, noting the absence of an opportunity for cross-examination regarding allegations of evasion of GST through bogus invoices from non-existent or non-operational firms. The High Court's decision to entertain the appeal on merits, notwithstanding limitation grounds, was upheld. Consequently, the petitioners' challenge was deemed premature and non-maintainable before the SC, mandating adherence to the appellate process prescribed by law.
