Food testing kits were held classifiable under CTI 3822 00 90, not CTI 3822 00 19, because they were meant for food testing and not diagnostic use; the importer's claim to exemption under Notification No. 50/2017-Cus for diagnostic test kits therefore failed.

On that basis, the penalties imposed on the importer and its directors were upheld, and the impugned order was sustained in full.
