The confiscation and duty-related classification objection were therefore maintained. However, as the record showed no mala fides and no knowledge of the mix-up on the importer's part, the original redemption fine was found excessive and reduced to a token amount. The substantive adverse findings remained undisturbed, with relief confined to moderation of the fine. en-us Fri, 29 Sep 1995 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 11:25:33 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=84711 Imported brass keys, brass locks and copper scrap found in a consignment could not be treated as "mixed Brass Scrap Honey" because the goods exceeded the permitted foreign material and did not answer the tariff description of metal waste or scrap not usable as such under the relevant customs note.
