The High Court addressed delay in filing a GST appeal and held that, although the Appellate Authority remains bound by the limitation under the CGST/RGST Act, the explanation showed circumstances beyond the petitioner's control. It found that denying adjudication on merits in such circumstances would cause grave prejudice, so the delay was condoned and the appellate remedy was directed to be entertained on merits. The challenge to the validity of the notifications was not pressed and was left open.
