Section 128(1) of the Customs Act prescribes a mandatory 60-day period for filing an appeal, with only a further 30 days available for condonation on sufficient cause shown. Once that outer limit expires, the Commissioner (Appeals) lacks jurisdiction to admit the appeal, and section 5 of the Limitation Act is excluded.
