Who is the importer? - Valuation of imported goods - MEGPTCL did not hold itself out to be the importer. Undisputedly, the Bills of Entry were filed by PMC and right from filing the Bill of Entry to the stage of investigation PMC held itself to be the importer. The document of title, on the basis of which ownership is determined, is the Bill of Lading. It is not the case of the department that the Bill of Lading was not in the name of PMC, for it is on the basis the said Bill of Lading that PMC had filed the Bills of Entry as an importer. Thus, MEGPTCL cannot be termed as an importer or de-facto importer as claimed by the Revenue. - AT
