An assessment order issued under the GST regime without a Document Identification Number was treated as non-est and unsustainable, following the principle that a DIN is mandatory for validity. The Court also held that a writ petition challenging the original assessment remained maintainable even though the statutory appeal had been dismissed as time-barred, since the challenge was directed to the invalidity of the foundational order.
