Regulation 6 of the Customs Brokers Licensing Regulations, 2013 exempts a person who has passed the earlier 1984 or 2004 examination from any further examination, so the earlier qualification remained sufficient for renewal.

The writ petition succeeded, the impugned order was set aside, and renewal had to be reconsidered in accordance with Regulation 6. en-us Tue, 23 Oct 2018 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 09 Nov 2018 19:02:46 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=370081 A Customs Broker licence renewal could not be refused merely because the partner had not passed the Chennai Customs examination, where the partner had already qualified under Regulation 9 of the Customs House Agents Licensing Regulations, 1984.
