The HC held that the impugned provisional attachment order dated 1 January 2025 is an appealable order under Section 107, CGST Act. The court recognised that consolidated show-cause notices spanning multiple periods may be interrogated to establish a pattern of fraudulent ITC availment via fictitious firms, and therefore allowed relief to the Petitioner for the period during which the writ petition remained pending. The Petitioner is permitted to institute the statutory appeal before the Commissioner (Appeals) subject to furnishing the prescribed pre-deposit. If the appeal is filed with the requisite pre-deposit by 15 December 2025, it shall not be dismissed on limitation grounds and shall be adjudicated on merits. Petition disposed.
