The HC set aside the impugned adjudication and remanded the matter to the concerned Adjudicating Authority for fresh adjudication, observing a breach of natural justice. The court found that the show-cause notice was uploaded only to the portal's "Additional Notices" tab and the Petitioner had not availed any personal hearing or filed a reply, resulting in denial of an effective opportunity to be heard.
