JUDGMENT

One of the main contentions raised by the petitioner is that, in the light of the law laid down by this Court in Joint Commissioner (Intelligence & Enforcement) v. M/s. Lakshmi Mobiles Accessories [ 2025 KHC OnLine 149 ] and Tharayil Medicals (M/s.), Thrissur v. Deputy Commissioner, Thrissur [2025 KHC OnLine 467], the said notice and order are unsustainable.

2.
