The HC set aside the impugned assessment order dated 21.01.2025 due to violation of natural justice principles, as the petitioner was not afforded a personal hearing and was unaware of the show cause notice served solely via the GST Portal.

The Court emphasized that passing ex parte orders after fulfilling only formalities leads to unnecessary litigation. Noting that 55% of the disputed tax had already been recovered, the HC remanded the matter to the respondent for fresh consideration, disposing of the petition accordingly.
