Hello Narendra, This is Adv. Satpreet Kaur, to answer to your inquiry, I would 1st like to tell you what is Section 70 of CGST, it the power given to the officer to issue Summons to a person, asking him to produce any evidence/ documents supporting his claim, in your case, documents showing your non involvement in this particular proprietary firm. It's nothing to worry, you just need to produce the evidence. If you need more information/ have more inquiries I cant consult you on this, the consultation fees will be applicable.
