¶73

In W.P.Nos.2044 of 2026, 2046 of 2026 and 1995 of 2026, the petitioner has challenged the respective impugned Orders passed for the Tax Period 2020-2021 as tabulated below:-

¶74

W.P.Nos.	Order under Challenge	Date of the impugned Order
2044 of 2026	Assessment Order	17.07.2024
2046 of 2026	Rectification Order	18.07.2024
1995 of 2026	Appeal Rejection Order	30.07.2025

¶75

The aforesaid Assessment Orders both dated 17.07.2024 passed for the respective Tax periods 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 respectively impugned in W.P.Nos.2001 of 2026 and 2044 of 2026 respectively, were preceded by respective Show Cause Notices both dated 18.08.2023 to which the petitioner filed respective replies on 16.05.2024 and on 22.05.2024.

¶76

However, by the aforesaid Assessment Orders both dated 17.07.2024, the demand proposed in aforesaid Show Cause Notices both dated 18.08.2023 for the respective Tax Periods have been confirmed as the petitioner failed to file a supporting documents to substantiate the case and failed to appear for the personal hearings fixed.

¶77

Aggrieved by the aforesaid Assessment Orders both dated 17.07.2024, the petitioner had filed respective applications for Rectification

W.P.Nos.1995, 2001, 2027, 2031, 2044 and 2046 of 2026

¶81

on 17.07.2024 against the respective Assessment Orders which came to be rejected by the Rectification Rejection Orders both dated 18.07.2024 impugned in respective W.P.Nos.2027 of 2026 and 2046 of 2026.

¶82

Subsequently, the Assessment Orders both dated 17.07.2024 were

¶83

challenged by respective appeals both dated 27.09.2024, which came to be rejected / dismissed on the ground of failure on the part of the petitioner for pre-deposit 10% required under Section 107 of the respective GST enactments by the respective Appeal Rejection Orders both dated 30.07.2025 impugned in respective W.P.Nos.2031 of 2026 and 1995 of 2026.

¶84

The reasons forthcoming for not filing these writ petitions earlier against the impugned Assessment Orders or against the Orders in appeal are that the rectification Order has been passed against the petitioner in violation of Principles of Natural Justice.

¶85

The learned counsel for the respondents on the other hand would submit that the cases can be remitted back only by putting the petitioner on terms as there is a delay in approaching this Court.

¶86

I have considered the arguments advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. 7/10

W.P.Nos.1995, 2001, 2027, 2031, 2044 and 2046 of 2026

¶89

The facts are not in dispute. The manner in which the proceedings

¶90

have been conducted by the 1^st respondent in confirming the demand vide impugned orders dated 17.07.2024 for the respective Assessment Years clearly indicates that there was undue alacrity in confirming the demand without giving opportunity to the petitioner for being heard. The personal hearing was fixed on 18.07.2024 vide personal hearing notice dated 10.07.2024. However, the impugned assessment orders have been passed on 17.07.2024 even prior to the scheduled date of hearing.

¶91

The petitioner attempted to rectify the aforesaid Assessment Orders by filing applications for rectification on the very same day which came to be rejected on the following day. The amount demanded is very huge and the petitioner unable to comply with the pre-deposit requirement for appeal before the 2^nd respondent.

¶92

Thus, this Court is of the view that where the Court can grant complete waiver that the petitioner cannot be found fault.

¶93

Under these circumstances, the impugned orders are quashed and

¶94

the cases are remitted back to the respondents to pass fresh orders on merits and in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible. The petitioner shall appear on the date specified for personal hearing. 8/10
