Writ relief against show cause notices is available where jurisdiction is absent and concluded advance rulings cannot be reopened without fresh fraud ...
HC quashed cancellation of GST registration and rejection of revocation because the show-cause notices and orders were non-speaking, lacked due consideration of the taxpayer's submissions, and were passed without affording a personal hearing. The Court held that cancellation of registration carries serious civil consequences and must comply with natural justice, including a reasoned decision. The impugned notices and consequential orders were set aside, and the matter was remanded to the original authority for fresh adjudication after hearing the petitioner and passing a speaking order.
