The validity of a show cause notice issued under Section 74 CGST was considered alongside whether prior inter-court judgments merge or bind lower authorities. The court held that a Supreme Court dismissal in limine does not effect a merger of a prior judgment, so the merger concept did not apply; consequence: earlier Delhi High Court reasoning could not be treated as merged.
