Allegations of undervaluation and misdeclaration of imported LED TVs as unbranded were rejected because the panchnama showed brand stickers only on certain LED panels while other parts lacked branding, and branding of a component could not legally convert the entire TV into a branded product; hence rejection of declared value on this ground was unsustainable. Reliance on computer printouts/retrieved data was inadmissible as the mandatory conditions for electronic evidence under Section 138C were not complied with, leaving the allegations unproved; consequently, re-determination of value was set aside. For drywall screws, absence of contemporaneous examination and comparison with invoices from different financial years and unrelated parties rendered the valuation exercise presumptive; therefore, revaluation was quashed and the appeal was allowed. - CESTAT
