The SC allowed the appeal and set aside the High Court's observation that the CESTAT had upheld an original finding that the appellant (CB) had advised the importer to mis-declare goods; the SC held the CESTAT determined the matter to be one of mis-classification rather than mis-declaration, and the adverse finding based on retracted statements was unsustainable. Consequently, the impugned adverse observation in paragraph 6 of the High Court order was declared incorrect and the adjudicatory conclusion that the appellant induced mis-declaration was quashed. The appeal was disposed of in favor of the appellant, with the contested finding removed and no further penalty sustained.
