Keyal, Sr. Advocate Mr. K. Jain, Advocate BEFORE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE DEVASHIS BARUAH ORDER Date : 17.07.2026 None appears on behalf of the petitioners on call. 2. Mr. S.C. Keyal, the learned Senior Counsel as well as the Standing Counsel for the CGST assisted by Mr. K. Jain, the learned counsel appears on behalf of the respondent Nos. 3 to 5. 3. The present writ petition has been filed by the petitioners assailing the show cause notice dated 08.03.2022, whereby the petitioners were show caused as to why the petitioners’ registration should not be cancelled on account of non- compliance of specified provisions in the GST Act or the Rules made thereunder. Page No.# 3/4 4. This Court duly takes note of that when the writ petition was filed before this Court, the learned Coordinate Bench of this Court, while issuing notice continued the interim order passed earlier that no coercive action should be taken against the petitioners. 5. This Court has duly heard the learned Senior Counsel appearing on behalf of the respondents and has also perused the show cause notice dated 08.03.2022 issued for cancellation of the registration. 6. A perusal of the said show cause notice reveals that the same is vague and does not contain the material particulars as to what are the specific provisions of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 or the Rules framed thereunder which have not been complied with. 7. Taking into account that the said show cause notice dated 08.03.2022 is vague and lacks material particulars, the said cannot be sustained in law, for which, the same is set aside and quashed. 8. Accordingly, the writ petition stands disposed of. 9. Before parting with the record, this Court, however, observes that the quashing of the impugned show cause notice dated 08.03.2022, shall not preclude the respondent authorities Page No.# 4/4 to take steps as per the provisions of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and the Rules framed therein under, if there is any infraction to the provisions of the said Act and the Rules framed thereunder.
