of HC held that roasted areca nuts constitute a distinct product category requiring classification under CTH 2008 19 20, distinguishing roasting from drying processes. The court found roasting involves severe heat treatment causing chemical and physical transformations, fundamentally different from moderate heat or dehydration methods. The department's sample collection and testing procedures were deemed procedurally flawed and potentially motivated. Consequently, the court directed release of the imported roasted areca nuts, quashing the original seizure and affirming the tariff classification under the specified heading. The appeal was allowed, emphasizing procedural fairness and precise taxonomic interpretation of commodity processing.
