The text analyses the legal requirements for initiating tax recovery under Section 73: a formal, authenticated Show Cause Notice specifying reasons and a separate statement of determination are mandatory and cannot be replaced by an attachment to FORM GST DRC-01 or DRC-07; proceedings and orders based solely on unauthenticated summaries are legally defective. In the absence of specific authentication rules in Chapter XVIII, electronic authentication by digital/e signature (Rule 26(3)) applies by default and lack of such authentication vitiates the documents. Separately, Section 75(4) confers a statutory right to a hearing before adverse action and failure to afford that hearing breaches natural justice and invalidates the order.
