This Writ Petition is being disposed of at the time of admission with the consent of the learned counsel for the Petitioner and learned Government Advocate for the Respondent. 3. In this Writ Petition, the Petitioner has challenged the impugned Order dated 29.08.2024 which was preceded by a Show Cause Notice in GST DRC-01 dated 30.05.2024 and the Petitioner was called upon to appear for personal hearing. However, the Petitioner had not taken advantage of the same and thus, suffered the impugned Order dated 29.08.2024. The limitation for filing an appeal under Section 107 of the respective GST enactments, 2017 has also expired. 4. It is noticed that under similar circumstances, this Court has come to the rescue of persons like the Petitioner by quashing the impugned Order on terms subject to the Petitioner depositing mandatory pre-deposit by complying with the requirements of Section 107 of the respective GST enactments. I do not find any reason to take a different view in this case. ____________ Page No. 2 of 5 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.No.37466 of 2025 5. Considering the same, the case is remitted back to the Respondent to pass a fresh order subject to the Petitioner depositing 50% of the disputed tax in cash from the Petitioner's Electronic Cash Register within a period of thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. 6. The Petitioner shall file a reply simultaneously to the Show Cause Notice in GST DRC-01 dated 30.05.2024 together with requisite documents to substantiate the case by treating the impugned Order dated 29.08.2024 as an addendum to the Show Cause Notice dated 30.05.2024 within a period of thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. 7. In case the Petitioner complies with the above stipulated conditions, the Respondent shall proceed to pass a final order on merits and in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of three (3) months thereafter. Subject to the Petitioner complying with the above stipulated conditions, the attachment of the bank account of the Petitioner shall also stand automatically raised/vacated. ____________ Page No. 3 of 5 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.No.37466 of 2025 8. In case the Petitioner fails to comply with any of the conditions stipulated above, the Respondent is at liberty to proceed against the Petitioner to recover the tax in accordance with law as if this Writ Petition was dismissed in limine today. 9. Needless to state, before passing any such order, the Respondent shall give due notice to the Petitioner. 10. This Writ Petition stands disposed of with the above observations. No costs.
