Subsequently, the authorities issued another provisional attachment order before the expiry, followed by a third order dated 08.08.2022 – However, as per Section 83(2) of the CGST Act, these orders ceased to be operative. Court deliberated on whether repeated orders could indefinitely extend provisional attachments – However, since the third order had also expired, the court did not delve into this question – Disposed of the petition by directing the concerned bank not to restrict the operation of the petitioner’s bank accounts based on the expired orders – Therefore, the petition was disposed of, ensuring the petitioner’s access to her bank accounts without interference from the earlier provisional attachment orders.
