Residuary penalty under section 117 of the Customs Act was unsustainable where specific penal provisions were available and the importer's omission arose from the supplier's failure to provide an invoice. After clearance, the importer verified the consignment, voluntarily disclosed the omitted invoice to Customs, and sought reassessment to pay duty on the entire consignment. As no material showed that Customs would otherwise have detected the irregularity, the Tribunal set aside the penalty imposed under section 117, allowed the appeal, and granted consequential relief.
