Jurisdiction - proper officers - power of DRI officers to issue SCN or not - If the Finance Bill becomes the Act, DRI officers will be at par with Customs officers under the Customs Act by virtue of the substitution of section 3 and their various actions such as searches, seizures, arrests may not become void because of non-entrustment of those functions by the Government under Section 6. However, there is no proposal to amend section 28 and hence SCNs can be issued even after this Bill becomes the Act only by ‘the proper officer’, i.e., the officer who has done the assessment in the first place. In fact, this specific legal position as held by the Supreme Court in Canon India is likely to be reaffirmed by insertion of section 110AA in the Act. - AT
