Where an importer receives the show cause notice and relied-upon documents but files no reply, does not attend personal hearing, and seeks adjudication on the basis of available records, the adjudicating authority may rely on the admissions already made. The appellant only objected to inclusion of inland haulage charges, and that objection was accepted; the remaining allegations on undervaluation and redetermination of transaction value were not contested.
