Differential customs duty could not be demanded on imported watches merely because authorised dealers later revised the retail sale price after clearance. The Tribunal held that the importer had declared the RSP at import, paid duty on that basis, and the goods were finally assessed without provisional assessment or user conditions; in the absence of evidence that the importer itself altered the RSP or knew of the later revision, rule 5 of the 2008 Rules was wrongly applied to an importer.
