The foreign trade notification could not impose an import-condition on EDC because it was classified under Chapter 29 of the ITC (HS), not Chapter 38, and policy restrictions tied to Chapter 38 could not be extended by implication. The amended Insecticides Rules and the Registration Committee's insistence on import permission were also held to be beyond the statute, so the customs objection was set aside and clearance was permitted without registration or import permit. en-us Wed, 06 Jun 2018 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 05 Mar 2019 10:34:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=365877 EDC imported for manufacturing purposes was treated as outside the Insecticides Act, 1968 because Section 38 excludes substances used for non-insecticidal purposes, so registration and import permit requirements did not apply.
