Imported polyester fabrics were held classifiable under CTI 5903 20 90 as polyurethane laminated textile fabrics, based on CRCL reports showing PU lamination; classifications under CTI 5903 90 90 and CTI 6006 32 00 were incorrect. The Anti Dumping Notification charging duty on PU coated fabrics did not extend to PU laminated goods, so the anti dumping demand was unsustainable. Rejection of transaction value under Valuation Rule 12 and re determination under the sequential valuation provisions (Rules 3-9) was found improvident because no specification mismatch justified rejection. Penalty for short levy for collusion or wilful misstatement was quashed accordingly.
