The court relied on a circular permitting Central Tax Officers of Audit Commissionerates and Directorate General of GST to issue show-cause notices. The impugned communication was not a show-cause notice but merely an intimation to pay up, failing which a show-cause notice u/s 74(1) would be issued, for which the Additional Director was competent. The court found no reason to interfere with the communication and dismissed the petition. en-us Thu, 12 Sep 2024 07:58:08 +0530 Thu, 12 Sep 2024 07:58:08 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=81267 The High Court held that the Additional Director of GST Intelligence was competent to issue the communication demanding payment, rejecting the petitioner's contention that only an Assistant Commissioner could issue such a notice.
