Just from what you wrote, there does not seem to be a justification to cancel your license. Do consult a lawyer, file an RTI petition about the grounds for the action and appeal against it. You can request your SP, but that may or may not help.

are you sure a case was filed under sec 32 of arms act.sec 32 is for confistication of arms and ammo

32. Power to confiscate.-(1) When any person is convicted under this Act of any offence committed by him in respect of any arms or ammunition, it shall be in the discretion of the convicting court further to direct that the whole or any portion of such arms or ammunition, and any vessel, vehicle or other means of conveyance and any resceptacle or thing containing, or used to conceal, the arms or ammunition shall be confiscated: Provided that if the conviction is set aside on appeal or otherwise, the order of confiscation shall become void.
(2) An order of confiscation may also be made by the appellate court or by the High Court when exercising its powers of revision.

Mr.Laksmipathi ,
Can you please elaborate on the actual case (fake or real) against you under what act and section. If you have a ruling of any court, saying that you are innocent, why fear about this show cause notice. Receive the show cause notice and attach the court order and reply to it point by point by registered post .If you appoint a lawyer, please get one with a good knowledge of the arms act and rules.

Since arms are fundamental right under Articles 19 and 21 of the Constitution of India, arms license cannot be revoked on the whims and fancies of authorities. Arms license can be revoked only by following exactly the due process of law for revocation of license as enacted in the Arms Act 1959.

Yes if you appoint a lawyer, please get one with a good knowledge of the Arms Act and Rules. One who understands that Arms Act is flowing from the Articles 19, 21 and Article 51A(d) of the Constitution of India. In other words he should understand that on the combined reading of Articles 19, 51A(d) and the Objects and Reasons of Arms Act 1959, the doctrine of the Second Amendment of the US Constitution exists very much for the citizens in the Indian Constitution.

If you search the Legal Eagle Section of this website, you will find many good High Court judgements. Some of them can be read in the following links:
