The text states that Heading 2522 expressly covers quicklime, slaked lime and hydraulic lime, whereas Heading 2825 applies to inorganic bases and chemically defined compounds only where the mineral product has been converted into a separate chemical product. It also notes that the goods were not mixtures requiring application of the general interpretative rules for competing headings. On that basis, the contrary classification was rejected and the related differential duty, interest and penalty were stated not to survive. en-us Fri, 10 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 13 Jul 2026 09:18:43 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=794846 Tariff classification of imported quicklime is presented on the basis that specific coverage under CTH 2522 1000 prevails over classification under CTH 2825 9090.
