The Appellate Authority gives a hearing and can grant adjournments for sufficient cause. Sec 107(9) limits adjournments to three times for a party during the hearing.

Provisions

Sec 107(8), CGST Act 2017; Sec 107(9), CGST Act 2017

Analysis

Hearings are often online or in person. Prepare a short written synopsis and a paper book of key documents. Example: in a Rs 12 lakh ITC case, a 3-page synopsis listing the supplier's filing status and case law helps the authority decide. Do not use up all adjournments, as the authority can decide on the record.
