The statutory bar on parallel proceedings under the GST law applies when the later action concerns the same subject matter, meaning the same distinct infraction, tax liability or obligation, not the year or return in general. Applying this principle, the High Court found that the assessment and rectification orders were unsustainable because the authority did not clearly determine whether the transactions covered by the earlier Central proceedings were being omitted from the State action or whether the State case involved separate infractions.
