The HC set aside the impugned adjudication order for violation of principles of natural justice, holding that the adjudicating authority failed to fix a personal hearing date, did not consider the noticee's furnished reply, and omitted to issue a fresh hearing notice for the subsequently appointed date. The petition is disposed of subject to the petitioner depositing Rs. 8,17,000 within one month; upon such deposit the appellate/assessment proceedings shall be remitted for fresh adjudication in accordance with statutory requirements of notice, opportunity of personal hearing, and reasoned consideration of the noticee's objections. Non-compliance with the deposit condition will render the order liable to be reinstated.
