Writ jurisdiction can be used to restore a GST appellate remedy where the statutory condonation limit prevents consideration of a delayed appeal, if the delay is shown to arise from circumstances beyond the appellant's control. The Court treated cancellation of GST registration as affecting the ability to carry on business and livelihood, and found that refusal to hear the appeal on merits would cause grave prejudice. It therefore condoned the 720-day delay, set aside the order rejecting the appeal as time-barred, and directed the appellate authority to hear and decide the appeal on merits.
