1999 (9) TMI 184 - AT - Central Excise

Summary

The case involved a Handling and Terminal Agent of Central Warehousing Corporation penalized for goods delivery to wrong premises. The driver's mistake led to goods being delivered to importers' premises instead of ICD Kanpur. The driver's statement did not implicate the appellant, who had instructed delivery only to ICD Kanpur. The penalty of Rs. one lakh was set aside as no mala fide intent was found. The appeal was allowed.
