The note analyses obligations of a customs broker under CBLR, emphasising that a broker must advise clients and report non compliance but is liable only where evidence shows failure to perform that duty; here the broker filed bills of entry after advising the importer of correct classification and duties, and prior port practice and specific departmental intelligence led to discovery of ineligible exemption claims. The disciplinary revocation and security forfeiture based on alleged breaches of Regulations 10(d)/11(d) are unsustainable for lack of evidence; directory timelines and principles of natural justice reinforce that licence cancellation was set aside.
