Section 7 admission requires established financial debt and default, not precise interest quantification, while post-suspension defaults remain action...
Belated Form 10B filing during Covid-19 cannot defeat charitable exemption where genuine hardship warrants condonation and substantial justice prevail...
Voluntary statements made by an importer, its proprietor and its agents during a Customs Act inquiry may be relied on as substantive admissions where they acknowledge under-invoicing and retail sale price misdeclaration. Denial of cross-examination does not breach natural justice where those persons cannot be compelled to depose against themselves. Original supplier invoices recovered from the importer's laptop and forensically examined in its presence constitute primary electronic evidence, without requiring a certificate applicable to secondary electronic records. Evidence of misdeclaration justified rejection of the declared transaction value and sequential redetermination under the Customs Valuation Rules. The consequential duty demand, confiscation and penalties were sustained.
