Sarma, learned counsel for the petitioner, who had filed this writ petition against an order of suspension of GST Registration which has provided under the Assam Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 as well as the Central Goods and Service Tax Act, 2017. The primary contention was that the proceeding was initiated by issuance of show cause notice without supply any specific grounds. When this matter had come up for consideration on 09.03.2026, the learned Standing Counsel, Finance (Taxation) Department was granted time to obtain instructions. Ms. Sarma, the learned counsel for the petitioner has however informed this Court that recently on 11.03.2026 a communication has been made to her whereby the proceeding has been dropped and the suspension of the registration has been revoked from 11.03.2026. In view of the aforesaid development, this Court is of the opinion that there is no surviving cause of action which requires any adjudication. Writ petition accordingly stands closed. The copy of the communication dated 11.03.206 is made part of the records. It is needless to state that in case, there is any future cause of action, there would be no bar on the part of the appropriate forum of law. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
