..... itter Voltage above 100 volts , but verification of the catalogue indicated that the Vceo is 100 volts only. He has observed that only the Transistor of Vceo above 100 volts falls under OGL. As the Vceo of the imported transistors was 100 volts only, these are not covered by OGL. He has further observed that there are two parameters in respect of the Transistors namely, Vceo and Veeo. Vceo represents the sustaining point whereas the Vces represents the break down point According to him the policy is only with reference to Vceo and in the present case It feolear from the invoice teat the Vceo was about 100 volts and therefore, the Transistors did not fell under Appendix 6 of Import Policy as claimed by the importer. He has, therefore, held t .....
