June 4, 2024

CESTAT AHMEDABAD held that Biofos Mono Calcium Phosphate (BMP) is classifiable u/s 2835 2610, not u/s 2309 9090. The deliberate attempt to misclassify was rejected as the fluorine content was not proven to be intentional. Specific description u/r 3(a) prevails over general description. Referring to a Supreme Court case, the Tribunal emphasized the importance of specific classification. The appellants' claim of intentional fluorine presence was unsubstantiated, indicating a deliberate misclassification for duty rate benefits. The appeal was dismissed for lack of merit.
