2. Heard Mr.T.Bashyam, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Mr.R.Gowri Shankar, learned Senior Standing Counsel, who takes notice on behalf of the respondents.

Although the writ petition has been filed challenging the blocking orders, during the course of the hearing, the

learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is willing to make a representation to the authorities seeking the unblocking of the entire Credit Ledger, and that the authorities may be directed to consider the same.

4. The learned Senior Standing Counsel appearing on behalf of the respondents would submit that, if such a representation is made by the petitioner, the same will be considered in accordance with law.

5. In view thereof, the writ petition is disposed of on the following terms:- i. The impugned order dated 06.03.2026 stands set-aside and the matter is remanded back to the file of the respondent for fresh consideration;

ii. Within one week from the date of receipt of a web copy of this order, without waiting for the certified copy, the petitioner shall make a representation seeking the unblocking of the ITC Credit Ledger. Upon receipt of such representation, the respondent shall consider the same and pass appropriate appropriate orders on merits and in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible,

after affording an opportunity of personal hearing to the petitioner;

iii. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
