Provisions expressly mentioned in the judgment/order text.
CBIC has clarified the scope of camera modules for cellular mobile phones eligible for concessional 10% BCD under Notification No. 57/2017-Customs. Camera modules may include multiple cameras, lens, sensor, FPCB Assembly, bracket/holder, connectors, and mechanical parts that provide structural stability and protection. The essential character test under GRI Rule 3(b) applies - components that do not add functionality beyond a camera's primary purpose but merely provide strength or protection are considered part of the camera module when imported as a complete assembly. Individual components imported separately remain subject to applicable BCD rates. This clarification addresses DRI's concerns about classification of camera modules with chassis brackets.
