The article addresses validity of cash seizures under the CGST framework, holding that seizure under the statute requires a recorded 'reason to believe' that goods, documents, books or things relevant to proceedings are secreted at a place; absence of such reasons rendered the cash seizure arbitrary and unlawful.
