Tribunal Rules Against Customs Duty Demand on Marble Blocks Due to Insufficient Evidence of Excess Weight Mis-declaration.

February 7, 2024

Case Laws     Customs     AT

Demand of customs duty based on mis-declaration of weight of imported rough A marble blocks - The Tribunal observed that, it is found that the department established a case of excess weight based on documents maintained by the Customs House Agent (CHA). However, the appellants argue that the difference in weight is due to trade practices and irregular shapes of blocks, resulting in greater waste content. - Consequently, considering the lack of evidence from the department demonstrating the disposal of the alleged excess goods, CESTAT held that the demand for customs duty cannot be sustained.
