The case involves imposition of penalty on a Customs House Agent (CHA) u/s 114 (iii) of the Customs Act 1962 for misusing drawback benefit through fraudulent exports. The appellant was not directly involved in illegal activities.

The penalty on the appellant is reduced to Rs.75,000/- from Rs.3,00,000/-. The appeal is partly allowed.
