Please upload details of your Inward and outward supply and payment received in Bank Account.” 1 2026:UHC:2499-DB 3. According to the petitioner, the inward tax credit was availed by him on account of calculation mistake. 4. By order dated 29.03.2025, the application for revocation of cancellation of GST registration has been rejected on the ground stated in the show-cause notice. 5. The case of the petitioner is that ₹ 8,04,528.74 which was availed by him as ITC by mistake has been deposited through JRC-03 (Annexure-9) on 02.03.2026.

Ms. Puja Banga, learned counsel for the Revenue very fairly states that in case the petitioner makes any representation and demonstrate before the authorities that the amount, which was wrongly availed as ITC, has now been duly deposited, the Department will revisit the request in relation to revocation of the cancellation of GST registration. 7. Accordingly, we dispose of the writ petition with liberty to the petitioner to represent to the Department along with evidence to show that amount has already been deposited and, in which event, the Department will 2 2026:UHC:2499-DB examine the claim and take fresh decision in the matter within four weeks from the date representation is filed. 8.
