Confiscation of declared non-infringing branded shoes was unsustainable where the adjudication order gave no reasons and the classification change did not affect duty liability; the related confiscation and redemption fine were set aside. Absolute confiscation of undeclared counterfeit branded shoes was upheld because the goods were found IPR-infringing and prohibited, even though the right holder reports should have been shared with the importer; the infringement was otherwise not disputed. Penalty was reduced substantially because mala fides were not established and departmental delays caused prejudice, so only a nominal penalty was warranted.
