EDD collected in SVB-related provisional assessments was a refundable deposit and not customs duty; once the related-party valuation issue was concluded in favour of the importer, refund could not be withheld pending finalisation of other Bills of Entry issues such as test reports, demurrage or quantity variations. The Tribunal held that the statutory scheme governing provisional assessment and refund applied to EDD, and rejected the departmental view that all assessments had to be finalised before refund.
