October 18, 2024

Case Laws     GST     HC

The court held that blocking of the Electronic Credit Ledger without providing a pre-decisional hearing to the petitioner and without containing cogent reasons to believe in the impugned order violated the principles of natural justice. Relying on the precedent of K-9-ENTERPRISES, KWALITY METALS, K-9-INDUSTRIES VERSUS THE STATE OF KARNATAKA, THE ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER OF COMMERCIAL TAXES, BELAGAVI, the court ruled that the mandatory requirements and parameters for invoking Rule 86A were not fulfilled by the respondents-revenue. The respondents were not entitled to rely upon the satisfaction of another officer and pass the impugned orders illegally and arbitrarily blocking the petitioner's Electronic Credit Ledger. Consequently, the impugned order was quashed, and the petition was allowed.
