https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=753229 Imported waste paper consignments containing municipal, bio-medical and hazardous waste were seized for alleged violation of import policy and Hazardous Waste Management Rules, with confiscation, penalties and re-export proposed in the show cause notices. The customs adjudicating authority and the appellate authority upheld the notices on the basis that the consignments fell within prohibited waste and amounted to illegal traffic. The Tribunal followed its earlier decision in the Emami Paper Mills line and directed a joint re-examination of the goods by the department and the State Pollution Control Board, with the importer allowed to opt for re-examination. If no violation is found, confiscation will be set aside; if violation is confirmed, re-export and the earlier consequences will follow. en-us Wed, 24 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 26 Oct 2024 15:16:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=753229 Imported waste paper consignments containing municipal, bio-medical and hazardous waste were seized for alleged violation of import policy and Hazardous Waste Management Rules, with confiscation, penalties and re-export proposed in the show cause notices.
