Refusal to convert shipping bills from drawback to DFIA was held unsustainable because an earlier appellate order had already directed conversion for all remaining shipping bills, causing the Commissioner's subsequent order allowing conversion for three years to merge with that appellate determination; the Revenue, having participated earlier, was barred from reopening the issue by res judicata. The restriction relied on under Circular No. 36/2010-Cus. was treated as inconsistent with s.149 of the Customs Act as held in prior judicial decisions, supporting validity of conversion. Consequently, conversion for the three-year period was upheld and the Revenue's appeal was dismissed. -CESTAT
