Absence of a Document Identification Number in GST assessment orders was treated as an inherent defect that invalidated the orders, following prior High Court rulings. The impugned orders were set aside and the matter was remanded to the Assessing Officer for fresh adjudication after giving the taxpayer an opportunity of hearing. On the delay objection, the Court noted the controversy over service through the GST portal and the practical difficulties in accessing portal-served orders, and held that a delayed writ could still be entertained where the orders disclosed a patent irregularity. Relief was granted subject to deposit of 20% of the disputed tax, with issues on merits left open.
