Adjudication proceeded on a basis different from the grounds specified in the show-cause notice, breaching Section 75(7) of the GST Act which proscribes confirming demand on any ground other than those stated; consequence: the impugned orders could not stand. The adjudicating authority relied on invoice treatment under forward charge to treat supplies as taxable under reverse charge, a new basis not pleaded in the notice; consequence: that reasoning was found improper.
