Held

The High Court disposed of all the writ petitions in light of its previous judgment dated June 4, 2024, in W.P.(C) Nos.31559/2019 and connected matters, indicating that the legal points raised were settled by that precedent.

Facts

Multiple petitioners challenged various GST notices and orders, including show cause notices under Section 73 and final orders (DRC-07), issued by tax authorities. These writ petitions were heard together as they involved similar legal issues.

Key Issues

The key legal issue appears to be the validity of show cause notices and subsequent orders issued under Section 73 of the GST Act, likely concerning alleged tax liabilities or input tax credit issues.
