Foreign customs declarations received through proper channels, with authenticated English translations, attract the statutory presumption for documents received from outside India; absent rebuttal, they may establish import undervaluation. Statements made to Customs officers under summons are admissible because those officers are not police officers, and may corroborate such declarations. The Tribunal held that discrepancies in declared quantity and brand justified rejection of transaction value under the Customs Valuation Rules. Valuation then had to proceed sequentially, and use of identical goods from the same exporter supported redetermination. Differential duty and the mandatory equal penalty for wilful misstatement and suppression were restored.
