The High Court examined the jurisdiction of the Commissioner to process the refund claim for Special Additional Duty (SAD) and the direction to transfer the claim to the jurisdictional Commissioner, Airport. Regarding the jurisdiction, the Court held that the Commissionerates of Seaport and Airport are clearly demarcated, and their charge is restricted to matters within their competence only. There can be no assumption of jurisdiction by officers of one Commissionerate over matters falling within the jurisdiction of the other. Concerning the transfer of the refund claim, the Court ruled that a superior authority can direct the transfer of an appeal from one authority to another based on competence. Since the matter related to a refund from the Airport Commissioner, the matter was rightly directed to be transferred to the Commissionerate Airport. The appeal was disposed of accordingly.
