Arsh Traders Vs CTO
GST - Petitioner challenges the cancellation of registration and rejection of application seeking revocation of cancellation of registration - SCN was issued for cancellation of registration on the ground that it has been obtained by means of fraud and wilful mistake and by suppression of facts - The petitioner was directed to appear on 28.06.2019, however, when no physical notice was received and as the petitioner is not techno savvy, he could not accede - On 26.07.2019, pursuant to the said notice, respondent cancelled the registration of the petitioner without making any mention or reason of cancellation - Since the petitioner did not receive any response from respondent till 24.11.2021 on his application for revocation of cancellation of registration, he preferred Special Civil Application No.4422 of 2021 = 2021-TIOL-2309-HC-AHM-GST and whereupon the respondents were directed to decide the revocation application - Respondent has rejected the application for revocation without providing adequate opportunity to explain the transactions to various parties, hence the present petition.
Held : Bench notices that the show cause notice, which has been issued, is quite cryptic - Court in Aggarwal Dyeing and Printing Works = 2022-TIOL-504-HC-AHM-GST , has at length decided this issue and has concluded by quashing and setting aside the respective show cause notices seeking cancellation of registration as well as the consequential respective impugned orders cancelling registration with liberty to the respondent No. 2 to issue fresh notice with particulars of reasons incorporated with details and thereafter to provide reasonable opportunity of hearing to the writ applicants, and to pass appropriate speaking orders on merits - Respondent shall be at liberty to initiate the action by giving a detail fresh show-cause notice within two weeks: High Court [para 5.3, 7]
