HC quashed a Show Cause Notice (SCN) issued in 2008 by Principal Commissioner of Customs, finding it barred by limitation u/s 28(9) of Customs Act, 1962. The court rejected respondent's justification that delay occurred due to SCN's placement in call book, noting that repeated placing and removing from call book over 15 years without adjudication was invalid. Following precedents from Swatch Group India and Vos Technologies cases, HC determined that absent any grounds showing impossibility to determine duty amount within prescribed period, the SCN had lapsed and could not be adjudicated. The unexplained gaps between periods and lack of reasoning for non-adjudication despite hearing notices further supported the petition's allowance.
