Issues: Whether the terms fixed for provisional release of the seized imported goods were to be modified on the basis of the declared and enhanced values.
Analysis: The Tribunal revisited the valuation issue pursuant to remand and examined the contemporaneous values reflected in NIDB data. It found that the declared value had already been enhanced in assessment on the basis of such data and that no reliable contrary basis had been produced to dislodge the valuation adopted by the Customs authorities. In that context, the Tribunal held that the earlier security conditions for provisional release were adequate and that the amount of bank guarantee was sufficient to cover the likely duty, redemption fine and penalty.
Conclusion: The valuation adopted for provisional release was accepted and the security conditions were upheld. The appellant was directed to furnish the enhanced-value bond and the specified bank guarantees, upon which provisional release was to be granted.
Final Conclusion: The Tribunal sustained the provisional release mechanism with the security terms already fixed, while allowing the goods to be released on compliance with those conditions.
Ratio Decidendi: Where contemporaneous import data supports the enhanced value adopted by the department, the Tribunal may uphold provisional release conditions requiring bond and bank guarantee commensurate with that value.
