A single show cause notice could not be enforced against both the former proprietorship and the later partnership firm for the post-conversion period, because the remand order required separate notices and no fresh notice to the partnership firm was shown; the later demand was therefore set aside. In works contract matters, a community hall intended for paid use and fruit and vegetable stalls were treated as having commercial character, so the claimed non-commercial exemption failed, while boundary walls, a public sports complex and related landscaping were held non-commercial on the dominant-use test. TDS and refundable security deposits were excluded from taxable value. Payment already made for EWS housing was left open to verification.
