Penalties under section 112 for alleged import of restricted rough marble without adequate Special Import Licences were held unsustainable because the case rested on presumptions drawn from mismatches between Bills of Entry and licences, while key records such as adjudication orders and details of fine/penalty payments were unavailable.
