Dear Experts, My client has received demand notice (DRC7) Rs. 18 lacs due to his supplier GST number cancelled under suo-moto. The suo-moto date after the invoice date. (Invoices received in April 2018 and suo-moto cancelled 01-09-2022). Now, all condition fulfilled all conditioned prescribed under Section 16 of SGST Act, 2017/CGST Act, 2017. But, supplier not generated eway bills at the time of supply. So, please guide me how file appeal without eway bill ?

The tax was paid to the supplier; if the supplier failed to remit it, the department should recover it from the supplier, not the recipient (Reference: Madras High Court in D.Y. Beathel Enterprises).
