Therefore, it was deemed premature to impose penalties against the appellants at that stage.The judicial member highlighted that since the allegations of clandestine removal of goods against M/s. Jawala Steel Corporation had not been adjudicated by the relevant authority, imposing penalties against the appellants before him would be premature.

Consequently, the impugned orders were set aside, and the matter was remanded back to the adjudicating authority to adjudicate on these issues in conjunction with the cases of M/s. Jawala Steel Corporation.In conclusion, the appeals and stay petitions were disposed of in the manner described above, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive adjudication of the allegations against M/s. Jawala Steel Corporation before imposing penalties on the other appellants involved in the case.
