https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=750980 The Bombay HC quashed an Order-in-Original passed by an adjudicating officer for unfair adjudication of a show cause notice. The petitioner was denied opportunity to raise preliminary objections and was not given proper notice that the show cause notice itself would be decided rather than just preliminary objections. The court held that quasi-judicial adjudication requires fairness and proper opportunity to be heard. The adjudicating officer failed to provide clear notice about the scope of adjudication, taking the petitioner by surprise. The matter was remanded for fresh consideration of all issues including preliminary objections. en-us Tue, 26 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 30 Apr 2025 14:16:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=750980 The Bombay HC quashed an Order-in-Original passed by an adjudicating officer for unfair adjudication of a show cause notice.
