Petitioner sought authorization to import 10,000 metric tonnes from Brazil but was granted only 2,000 metric tonnes. Court held that respondents' restriction to 2,000 metric tonnes lacked statutory authorization under Section 9A of the Foreign Trade Act 1992 and violated Article 19(1)(g) of the Constitution. The decision was deemed arbitrary as no statutory principles guided the licensing authority's discretion. Court declared petitioner entitled to authorization for remaining 8,000 metric tonnes and directed issuance within four weeks. en-us Fri, 22 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 05 Dec 2024 10:20:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=762723 Bombay HC allowed petitioner's challenge to quantitative restrictions on maize corn/pop corn imports.
