The HC set aside the impugned demand order and remanded the matter to the Adjudicating Authority for fresh adjudication, finding a breach of audi alteram partem where the SCN and subsequent notices were uploaded only to the "Additional Notices" tab and the Petitioner was not afforded a real opportunity to be heard.
