Defective service of a GST show-cause notice and adjudication order through an incorrect common-portal tab justified condonation of delay in filing the GST appeal. Uploading a notice on the portal alone was treated as insufficient service where there was no acknowledgement or reply, and belated recovery action supported the taxpayer's claim that the order appeared under "Additional Notices and Orders" rather than the designated tab. Although the Appellate Authority was bound by the statutory limitation period, refusal to hear the appeal would cause grave prejudice where the delay arose from circumstances beyond the taxpayer's control. The appeal was directed to be entertained and decided on merits if filed within the stipulated period.
