Refund claim - Period of limitation - Doctrine of merger - importer having registered a ‘Protest’ - The Tribunal held that, "the doctrine of merger" implies that the order passed by a lower authority would lose its finality and efficacy in favour of an order passed by a higher authority before whom correctness of such an order may have been assailed in appeal or revision.
