With the consent of the counsel for the petitioner as well as the Government Advocate, these writ petitions are disposed of at the admission stage. 3. In these writ petitions, the petitioner has challenged the impugned proceedings in DRC-07 passed by the respondent for the respective assessment years. The impugned orders have preceded the show cause notices in GST DRC-01, which were however not replied by the petitioner and thus, the petitioner suffered the impugned orders.4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner may be given one opportunity to retrieve its grievance and therefore seeks for a remand. 5. However, the Government advocate on the other hand would submit that the petitioner has an alternate remedy under Section 107 of the respective GST enactments and since the petitioner failed to file a reply to the show case notices, the impugned orders have been passed.6. Having considered the submissions made by both sides and following the consistent view of this Court under similar circumstances has been to relegate the party to work out the remedy, this Court is inclined to dispose of these writ petitions with the following order: https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis WP No. 50164 of 2025 etc., batch __________Page 5 of 7a) The cases are remitted back to the respondent to pass a fresh order subject to the petitioner depositing 10% of the disputed tax in cash from the petitioner's Electronic Cash Register within a period of thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.b) The petitioner shall also file a consolidated reply to the respective show cause notices in GST DRC-01 together with requisite documents to substantiate the case by treating the impugned orders in each of the writ petitions as an addendum to the same, within a period of thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.c) Subject to the petitioner complying with the above stipulated conditions, the respondent shall proceed to pass final order on merits and in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of three (3) months thereafter.d) In case the petitioner fails to comply with any of the conditions stipulated above, the respondent is at liberty to proceed against the petitioner to recover the tax in accordance with law as if these writ petitions were dismised in limine today. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis WP No. 50164 of 2025 etc., batch __________Page 6 of 7e) Needless to state, before passing any such order, the respondent shall give due notice to the petitioner. 7.
