The Madras HC held that the ninety-day period in Regulation 17(1) of the Customs Brokers Licensing Regulations, 2018 for issuing a show cause notice after receipt of the offence report is mandatory. Relying on its earlier binding decisions, the Court rejected the contrary view that the provision is merely directory.
