No.06, via Dhhulagori-PS. Sankrali, Dist. Howrah, West Bengal. As no warehousing certificate was received, it was inferred that the goods in question, cleared by the appellant have not been warehoused at the premises of the consignee. 3.

Departmental representative would reiterate the grounds of appeal in the appeal memorandum which are reproduced here below: The Appellate Authority failed to consider that the superintendent in charge of the assessee unit has never received re-warehousing Certificates from the Customs Authority in charge of consignee unit.
