CESTAT upheld the adjudicating authority's order dismissing the appeal and affirmed imposition of penalty without revocation of the customs broker licence or forfeiture of security. The Tribunal found that allegations actually sustained against the respondent concerned breaches of Regulations 10 and 11(b) of CBLR, 2013, and that the respondent was not notified of any breach of Regulation 17(9), rendering that ground invalid for want of natural justice. Applying Regulation 18 and 20, the LAA permissibly exercised discretion to impose monetary punishment rather than cancellation or security forfeiture in light of the gravity and facts of the breaches; no interference was warranted.
