Appeal Against OrderGST

The Madras High Court ruled that a GST order had traveled beyond the scope of the Show Cause Notice (SCN) initially issued. The court directed that the order be treated as a fresh SCN and mandated the petitioner to make a 10% pre-deposit before proceeding with the case. This ruling emphasizes the importance of adhering to the original scope of SCNs in GST proceedings and ensuring that taxpayers are not subjected to additional demands without proper notice and opportunity to respond.
