The HC set aside impugned composite show-cause notices and assessment orders for consolidating multiple tax periods, holding that a single SCN or composite assessment cannot cover more than one tax period (monthly or annual as applicable) and that separate assessments must be framed for each assessment year; divergence in High Courts' precedents noted but statutory interpretation, read with related provisions and the rights to benefits and appeals under the GST framework, requires distinct orders per period.
