Gurjeet Singh v. GST (Network) - [2024] 162 taxmann com 884 (Delhi)

The petitioner had approached the High Court and sought details regarding misuse of his PAN for GST registration and e-way bill generation. He also requested the Court to direct the department to provide address and mobile number of person who misused his PAN.

The department informed that it had received a communication from National Informatics Centre (NIC) regarding the information that was forwarded to them by the NIC. The department submitted that the information was already provided to the petitioner and other than this, there was no information that had been provided to the department from the NIC.

Therefore, the Court disposed of the writ petition after disclosure of available details and granted liberty to assessee to seek further information from appropriate authority including correct address of person who misused assessee’s PAN and any available mobile number
