Imported goods classifiable under Chapter Heading 2710 1990 as 'Other' declared by importer upheld over Revenue's claim of Chapter Heading 2710 1290 as 'Light oils and preparations'.

Adjudicating authority's reasoning for classification under 2710 1990 appropriate. Order setting aside re-export and allowing home consumption clearance correct, as goods not prohibited. No violation of Petroleum Act, 2002 found, hence no confiscation or redemption fine tenable. Penalty on importer under Customs Act set aside. Revenue's appeal rejected, importer's appeal allowed.
