Disposal of seized gold jewellery without intimation to the affected person and adjudicatory authorities is condemned as breach of natural justice, and administrative disposal without notice is unlawful; consequence: entitlement to compensation at prevailing market value for the seized 1110 grams. Unlawful reduction of refund by deducting customs duty or using a lower recovered amount is impermissible where re-export has been ordered; consequence: refund must reflect full market rate.
