JUDGMENT: (per Manoj Kumar Gupta, C.J.)
1.
The petitioner has assailed the
order dated 18.01.2025 passed by respondents cancelling the GST registration of the petitioner-firm on the ground that the petitioner has failed to file the returns within the prescribed period.
2.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that in identical facts and circumstances in WPMB No. 39 of 2025, a Coordinate Bench has permitted the petitioner therein to file an application for revocation of the cancellation order and subject to deposit of unpaid tax along with interest and penalty, the competent authority has been directed to decide the application for revocation of the cancellation order. The operative part of the
order passed in the said writ petition is as follows:
“8. Accordingly, present writ petition is disposed of by permitting petitioner to move an application for revocation of the cancellation
order. If he makes such application within two weeks from today and also furnishes all the pending returns and deposits unpaid tax along with interest and amount of penalty, the Competent Authority shall consider the petitioner’s prayer for revocation as per law within four weeks from the date of receipt of such application.”
