Writ petitions challenging customs adjudication were held not maintainable because an efficacious statutory appeal under the Customs Act was available and no exceptional jurisdictional infirmity was shown. The Court held that non-communication of an extension of time under Section 28(9), by itself, does not invalidate the extension, since intimation is desirable but not a mandatory for validity.

The petitioners were relegated to the statutory appeal, with the period spent in writ proceedings directed to be excluded for limitation purposes.
