Maintainability of application for settlement of the case - no show cause notice was issued - The petitioners on their own could not have assessed the duty payable on the goods which are the subject matter of two Bills of Entry and could not have paid the duty on its own to contend that the said application was maintainable. If the arguments of the learned senior counsel for the petitioners are accepted, any assessee would file an application for settlement by considering even the correspondence exchanged between the parties or affidavit-in-reply filed by the Revenue in another proceedings as show cause notice and based on such show cause notice, would compute the duty and other levy as may be leviable according to the self-assessment of the petitioners so as to claim immunity from prosecution and penalty. The writ petition is totally devoid of merit. - HC
