Assessee is entitled to one opportunity of a personal hearing before the Authority passes the order


Quick Summary
The Allahabad High Court has ruled that taxpayers are entitled to at least one opportunity to be heard before a GST authority issues a final order. This ensures that the assessee can present their case and establish facts before a decision is made. The court emphasised that such hearings are crucial, especially when orders can adversely affect valuable assets like a transporter's truck.
