Imported Fork/Yoke Gear Shift Components Correctly Classified as Motor Vehicle Gear Box Parts Under CTH 8708400, Not Transmission Shafts

Case Laws Customs SC

The appellant incorrectly classified imported Fork/Yoke 5th and reverse gear shift components (motor vehicle parts) under CTH 84831099 as "Transmission Shafts" rather than the appropriate CTH 8708400 designation for gear box parts. CESTAT determined this misclassification resulted in evasion of Basic Customs Duty at a rate of 2.5%. The SC found no grounds to interfere with CESTAT's order, concluding the components were properly classifiable as parts of motor vehicle gear boxes under CTH 8708400 rather than general transmission components. The appeal was accordingly dismissed, upholding the original customs duty assessment and classification determination.
