The CESTAT allowed the appeal, holding that statements under s.108 of the Customs Act were inadmissible where the procedural safeguards of s.138B were not complied with, and that admission and opportunity for cross-examination are prerequisite to their evidentiary value. The Tribunal further found the proviso to s.3(2) of the Tariff Act inapplicable because both statutory conditions (requirement under the 1976 Act and a s.4A notification) were not simultaneously satisfied; consequently the Commissioner (Appeals)'s reliance on retail price for CVD determination was unsustainable. The impugned order confirming demand under s.28(1) with interest and imposing penalty under s.112(a) was set aside. Appeal allowed.
