Non-compliance with the pre-deposit requirement under section 107(6) was treated as a curable procedural defect where the taxpayer had deposited the amount in the electronic cash ledger and shown an intention to comply. The High Court held that the appeal was dismissed solely for alleged non-compliance, not on merits, and that natural justice required the Appellate Authority to point out the defect and allow reasonable time to cure it before rejecting the appeal. The order was quashed and the matter remanded for consideration on merits after the pre-deposit issue is rectified.
