Bharat Sales Corporation Vs. Collector of Customs

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Decided on: May-19-1987

Reported in: (1989)(42)ELT301TriDel

1. M/s. Bharat Sales Corporation, Calcutta (the appellants herein) imported a consignment of "crankshaft rear end packing". The customs authorities assessed the goods to duty under Heading No. 68.01/16 of the First Schedule to the Customs Tariff Act, 1975. After payment of the duty and clearance of the goods, the appellants claimed that the correct classification was under Heading 84.64 and that consequential refund of duty be granted to them. The claim was rejected by the Assistant Collector by an Order dated 3.8.1982 which we cannot describe even as cryptic - it can hardly be called an adjudication order. It reads: "on examination of the claim, it is found that the goods are correctly classifiable under Heading 68.01/16(1), the claims, therefore, untenable".This, in spite of the appellants having referred to order-in-appeal No.2489/78 passed by the Appellate Collector, as noted by the Assistant Collector. The Assistant Collector seems to have been oblivious to the fact that he was s...
