Thus, an unconditional order was required to be passed restraining the department from taking any coercive steps against petitioner in connection with enforcement of order passed under Section 73 till 30th November, 2021.
Therefore, the Honorable Calcutta High Court has directed the GST department not to take any coercive action against the petitioner in connection with enforcement of order passed under Section 73.
