The investigation revealed no imports from the alleged Taiwanese supplier for the consignments in question, and the certificate of origin suspected to be forged did not pertain to the appellant's imports. Furthermore, the assessments for the relevant bills of entry had been finalized within the statutory limitation period under Section 17(4) of the Customs Act, 1962, precluding reassessment. Consequently, the Tribunal found insufficient evidence to establish that the goods originated from China or were routed through Taiwan to evade anti-dumping duty. The impugned order imposing anti-dumping duty was therefore set aside, and the appeal was allowed. en-us Fri, 25 Jul 2025 08:28:11 +0530 Fri, 25 Jul 2025 08:28:19 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=90882 The CESTAT held that the appellant was not liable to pay anti-dumping duty on aluminum alloy wheels imported during the relevant period, as there was no conclusive evidence of mis-declaration of country of origin or evasion of duty.
