Determination of Fe content in exported iron ore fines governed admissibility of test reports and duty liability; departmental CRCL samples taken at load port were preferred over private laboratory reports, and reliance on private tests was rejected, resulting in dismissal of Revenue's differential duty claim. Allegations of artificial splitting of consignments failed for lack of substantive proof, and separate contracts, sampling advices, and shipping bills supported separate consignments - allegation dismissed.
