Held

The High Court declined to exercise its extraordinary writ jurisdiction, directing the petitioners to avail the efficacious statutory alternative remedy under Section 107 of the CGST Act. It clarified that the pre-deposit for appeals would be governed by Section 107(6) as it stood on the date of issuance of the Show Cause Notices.

Facts

Petitioners challenged adjudication orders imposing penalties and initiating proceedings under the GST Act, raising various grounds including natural justice violations, evidentiary issues, and the competence of authorities, through writ petitions before the High Court.

Key Issues

Whether the High Court should exercise writ jurisdiction against adjudication orders when an alternative remedy under Section 107 is available, and questions regarding the competence of officers and the applicability of Section 122(1) to non-taxable persons.
