Dispute Resolution Panel objections must reach both prescribed forums; otherwise assessment may proceed and statutory appeal remains the proper remedy...
The HC ruled that the customs authorities' continued provisional attachment of the Petitioner's bank accounts was without legal authority. Despite the Petitioner providing all requested documentation (purchase registers, ledgers, bank accounts) in response to summons under Section 108 of the Customs Act, Respondent No.2/5 persisted with unwarranted investigation. The court determined that the Petitioner merely sold goods imported by another entity (M/s. S.T. Electricals) to M/s. Mayur Enterprise, and the customs officer exceeded jurisdiction by insisting on the proprietor's personal appearance without justification. The court concluded that further investigation against the Petitioner served no purpose and directed the release of the bank accounts. Petition allowed.
