The AT allowed the appeal and set aside the impugned order, finding that the Respondent unlawfully retained seized property/documents beyond the initial 180-day period under s.8(3)(a) and failed to furnish relied-upon documents (including FIR copies, ITRs and GSTRs) to the Appellant, thereby breaching procedural fairness; disclosure of the ECIR was correctly deemed unnecessary.
