The SC dismissed the appeals and disposed of the proceedings in accordance with the Board circular, remitting the matter for recalculation of penalty and refund insofar as a penalty was levied on the entire consignment. The Court held that the impugned order did not fall within the specific category under Clause (iv) of Paragraph 4 of the Circular because the directive concerned recomputation of penalty for a discrete transaction and did not directly require refund or construction of statutory provisions nor did it raise a recurring question of law. Consequently, the appeals were declined and the matter was remanded for reassessment and appropriate refund consistent with the Circular.
