CESTAT set aside the impugned adjudication and allowed the appeal by way of remand, directing the original adjudicating authority to re-examine the classification dispute de novo. The authority must undertake diligent, unbiased ascertainment of the goods' description against competing headings, relevant chapter notes (including Notes 3 and 6 of Chapter 39), Rule 3 GRI and Explanatory Notes of the HSN, and, where necessary, obtain expert opinion and laboratory testing of samples or address existing test reports.
