Provisions expressly mentioned in the judgment/order text.
Mis-declaration of value of imported goods - No evidence is on record that the any payment over and above the contracted, and declared, price was made to the seller. The allegation hinges on the said transaction price being on Free on Board (FOB) terms while duties of customs are to be computed on value appraised on Cost Insurance Freight (CIF) terms. The authority for adoption of the base arises from rule 10 of Customs Valuation (Determination of Value of Imported Goods) Rules, 2007 which is not a consequence of rejection of declared value attended upon by re-determination through rule 4 to rule 9 of the said Rules. Recourse to confiscation under section 111(m) of Customs Act, 1962 is, therefore, not tenable in law. - AT
