The High Court held that inability to trace proof of dispatch of hearing notices does not automatically establish denial of personal hearing, especially in ITC fraud cases.
The court found a prima facie overlap between excess ITC due to non-reconciliation and ITC disallowed under Section 16(4), directing partial pre-deposit and fresh adjudication.
The High Court found prima facie overlap between two assessment proceedings for the same tax period. The demand was remitted for fresh consideration after allowing the taxpayer to file a reply.

The Delhi High Court upheld exclusion of multiple comparables after finding them functionally different from a low-risk investment advisory service provider. It held that such findings were factual and did not raise any substantial question of law.
The court held that an appeal filed beyond the maximum condonable period under GST law cannot be entertained, and writ jurisdiction cannot be used to override statutory timelines.
The court refused to grant a mandatory stay on income tax demand where the taxpayer had earlier proposed paying dues in instalments. The ruling underscores that voluntary payment proposals can weaken claims for interim protection.
The Court held that customs officials acting in their official capacity cannot be cross-examined as a matter of right. Cross-examination is permissible only where specific prejudice is shown.
