Issues: Whether a notice under Section 124 of the Customs Act, 1962 is required to be issued within the period specified in Section 110(1), as extended by the proviso, of the Customs Act, 1962.
Analysis: The Court followed the settled position that the time limit prescribed in Section 110 for giving notice in relation to seizure does not control the issuance of notice under Section 124. Section 124 does not itself prescribe any period of limitation for service of notice, and the earlier decisions construing these provisions had already reached the same conclusion.
Conclusion: A notice under Section 124 of the Customs Act, 1962 is not required to be issued within the period specified under Section 110(1), as extended by its proviso, and the issue was answered against the assessee.
