CESTAT held that the appellant's declaration of PVC Regrind was accurate in both import consignments. The poppy seeds found were subject to confiscation and destruction, which the appellant did not contest. The first consignment of 23,978 kgs PVC Regrind was allowed for home consumption upon payment of appropriate duty and redemption fine, while the second consignment of 56,080 kgs was permitted for domestic clearance without additional penalties. The tribunal rejected the revenue's attempt to reclassify the goods, emphasizing that the burden of proof lies with the revenue to challenge the importer's classification. No penalties were imposed on the appellant for the inadvertent poppy seeds import.
