***** ASHWANI KUMAR MISHRA, C.J. (Oral) 1.
The petitioner’s GST registration has been cancelled vide order dated 22.08.2022 (Annexure P-8) with retrospective effect from 28.02.2021. The said cancellation of GST registration is challenged by way of this writ petition primarily on the ground that the show cause notice issued, pursuant to which impugned order was passed, does not make reference to any retrospective cancellation. Learned counsel for the petitioner has placed reliance upon the Division Bench judgment of this Court in M/s Bansal Casting, S.K. Enterprises Vs. Union of India and Another and M/s Shree Ram Industries V/s State of Haryana and Another; 2026:PHHC:027747-DB to submit that in such circumstances, the impugned order cannot be sustained.
2.
Learned State counsel does not dispute either the facts of the present case or the law laid down by the Co-ordinate Bench of this Court in M/s Bansal Casting, S.K. Enterprises (Supra).
