These notices and the order were not communicated through the prescribed normal mode of service, such as physical delivery or email, as mandated under the GST law. The petitioner contended that this method of notification failed to meet the statutory requirements for valid service, rendering the notices and order invalid. The matter was brought before the Calcutta High Court, where the petitioner sought the quashing of the notices and order due to procedural non-compliance.<\/p>\n<h2><em>High Court Held<\/em><\/h2>\n<p>The Hon\u2019ble Calcutta High Court held that placing the notices and orders only in the \u2018Additional Notices and Orders\u2019 tab without proper communication via the mandated service mode does not constitute valid service under the provisions of Section 73 of the CGST Act. As a result, the intimation, SCN, and order were quashed. The Court clarified that the department is at liberty to initiate any further proceedings, provided they follow the correct legal procedures and ensure proper communication as required by the law. The writ petition was disposed of in favour of the petitioner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Case Details: St Xaviers College Calcutta Alumni Association Versus Dy Commissioner of&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":3574,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37,60,189],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3569","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gst","category-news","category-gst-case-chronicles"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>HC Quashes GST Orders Served Only via Portal Without Proper Communication<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"HC rules GST notices placed solely in portal&#039;s \u2018Additional Notices\u2019 tab without mandated service are invalid;
