FULL TEXT OF THE JUDGMENT/ORDER OF MADRAS HIGH COURT
Captioned writ petition has been filed assailing an ‘order dated 20.10.2022 bearing reference Rc.No.794/2022/A1’ [hereinafter ‘impugned order’ for the sake of convenience and brevity] made by the first respondent. This is Certiorari limb of prayer. To be noted, Mandamus limb of the prayer is to direct the respondents to revoke cancellation of ‘GST’ [‘Goods and Services Tax’] registration of the writ petitioner.
2. Before proceeding further, it is to be noted that prayer reads ‘writ petitioner’s firm’ but the cause title refers to Hemasri Enterprises and it says it is represented by proprietor. A proprietary concern is obviously not a firm. Though the array of parties has not been happily worded / correctly set out, I construe Mr.Sakthi Narayanan carrying on business in the name and style of ‘Hemasri Enterprises’ as sole proprietor as the petitioner.
