2021 (11) TMI 714 - HC - GSTViolation of the principles of natural justice - Validity of GST assessment order - no opportunity of filing an objection and personal hearing provided - Section 74 (1) of the CGST/SGST Act, 2017 - HELD THAT:- A perusal of Ext.P8 order shows that the same had been issued without giving a breathing time to petitioner. An assessment order being the commencement point of various rights and or obligations that accrue to assessees, it is necessary that a reasonable time is granted to the assessees to file their objections. In this context, it is relevant to bear in mind that the Hon'ble Supreme Court had extended all periods of limitation till 02.10.2021 taking into consideration, the specific issues relating to Covid. It cannot be said that petitioner had been granted sufficient opportunity to reply to the notice - Ext.P8 is liable to be set aside - Petition allowed.
