Amendment of shipping bills under section 149 and conversion of 'free' to scheme shipping bills turned on documentary proof and customs certification; ARE-1 endorsements showing excise relief were not controverted and establish entitlement, so rejection of amendment requests was improper.

Customs authorities' routine role in certifying export relief was emphasised and absence of evidence against customs officials made discarding that certification unsupportable.
