Retrospective cancellation of GST registration requires a prior, specific proposal for retrospective effect in the show-cause notice and disclosure of the reasons/materials relied upon; absence of such proposal renders retrospective effect unsustainable. Authorities must supply any supportive documents referred to in the notice before final adjudication; failure to supply vitiates proceedings.
