3. Then, Mr. Jetly says that this is possibly not a grievance against the Central machinery, but the State GST Officials.
4. In that regard, we find that respondent No.2 to these petitions is the Commissioner of State Tax.
5. On an oral query, Ms. Shruti Vyas appearing for respondent Nos.1,2 and 7 took instructions from the official present in the Court and says that respondent Nos.1, 2 and 7 will ensure that the Commissioner, second respondent, meets the petitioner or its representatives on Monday i.e. 11th February, 2018 at 11.30 a.m. and will ensure that the petitioner’s grievances are redressed.
