De-notification of Customs Area and termination of Container Freight Station custodian and Customs Cargo Service Provider authority effective 07-01-20...
Whether customs duty on conversion from foreign to coastal run is leviable when import occurred before Notification No.12/2012: court held liability arises at the time of first import (date of import controls), and because the relevant imports predated the Notification, no duty was attractable - demand quashed. Whether the impugned letter constituted a valid demand or merely a show-cause notice: court found the enclosed computation and 14-day remittance call rendered it a substantive demand, not a procedural notice, and therefore the communication was invalid - quashed. - HC
