https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=782107 HC disposed of the writ petition seeking release of a detained 117-gram gold bar without issuing SCN under Section 110 of the Customs Act, 1962. Relying on recent SC precedent clarifying that the time limit under Section 110(2) is independent of Section 124, the HC declined to order release in writ jurisdiction, noting that factual issues (including foreign-origin markings and statements under Section 108) require inquiry. HC directed petitioner to appear before Customs on a specified date; Customs must verify credentials, grant hearing, and pass an order in accordance with law. en-us Wed, 19 Nov 2025 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 25 Nov 2025 08:55:39 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=782107 HC disposed of the writ petition seeking release of a detained 117-gram gold bar without issuing SCN under Section 110 of the Customs Act, 1962.
