A CESTAT decision states that an importer's letter foregoing SAFTA preferential duty, given while goods were detained and demurrage accrued, was not a voluntary relinquishment under section 28DA(4) and did not bar challenge to reassessment. It further states that a valid, undisputed Bangladesh certificate of origin established entitlement to concessional duty where the prescribed SAFTA verification procedure was not invoked.
