Judgment

Order Mr.TNC.Kaushik, learned Additional Government Pleader takes notice for the Respondents.

¶2This Writ Petition is being disposed of at the stage of admission itself with the consent of the learned counsel for the Petitioner and the learned Additional Government Pleader for the Respondents.

¶3In this writ petition, the petitioner is before this Court against the impugned recovery notice dated 25.10.2025, whereby the petitioner's bankers namely the 3rd respondent, have been informed that the petitioner is in errors of tax pursuant to the assessment order dated 27.10.2023.

¶4The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that on a reading of the copy of the aforesaid order reading of the aforesaid order, indicates that the entire demand pertains to the belated availment of Input Tax Credit under Section 16(4) of the respective GST Enactments. It is also noted that the petitioner has already challenged the aforesaid order before this Court in W.P.No.30909 of 2024. Page3 of 6

¶5The amount specified in the recovery notice and the date of the order are identical to the order referred to in the impugned recovery notice, namely Form GST DRC-07 dated 27.10.2023, issued pursuant to the detailed order dated 26.10.2023. The said order has already been quashed by this Court and the matter has been remitted back to the first respondent to redo the exercise.

¶6In such circumstances, there is no justification for proceeding with the impugned recovery notice, particularly when the order dated 26.10.2023, pursuant to which GST DRC-07 dated 27.10.2023 was issued, has already been quashed by this Court by order dated 28.10.2024 in WP.No.30909 of 2024 along with batch.

¶7Accordingly, the impugned recovery notice is quashed. Any recovery shall be made only subject to the final order to be passed by the first respondent pursuant to the order dated 28.10.2024 in W.P.No.30909 of 2024.

¶8In view of the above, the attachment of the petitioner's bank account shall be lifted subject to the Petitioner not being in arrears of any other amount for any other tax period barring the amount demanded under the impugned Order. Page4 of 6
