https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=96066 Suspension of a Custom House Agent licence under Regulation 21(2) was treated as an exceptional power available only where immediate action is necessary and an inquiry under Regulation 23 is contemplated. The material relied on showed only alleged misuse of the licence by employees in connection with a mobile phone seizure, without direct involvement of the licence holder in smuggling activity. No notice under Regulation 23 had been issued, so the contemplated inquiry had not commenced. On that basis, the suspension order was held unsustainable and was set aside. en-us Fri, 02 Mar 2001 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 17 Dec 2011 10:31:47 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=96066 Suspension of a Custom House Agent licence under Regulation 21(2) was treated as an exceptional power available only where immediate action is necessary and an inquiry under Regulation 23 is contemplated.
