Assistant Collector rejected the refund claim. Collector (Appeals) also rejected the claim and upheld the impugned order on the ground that Notification No.23/77-Cus, dated 8-2-1977 exempts components only and not the spares.2A.

1. Appellants are absent and are unrepresented in spite of notice hearing. We have heard Shri K.K. Jha, SDR and perused the papers.2. The appeal relates to import by appellants of 100 cartons of Pelikan brand of staple pins of South Korean origin through a Singapore supplier at the declared value of US $ 0.50 per dozen boxes CIF. Bill of Entry bears the date 11-6-1990. After show cause notice and personal hearing, the Collector of Customs loaded the value to US $ 0.66 per dozen boxes CIF. It is the contention of the appellants that this value could not have been adopted for two reasons, namely, that the appellants' import was under sale confirmation dated 7-5-1989 which disclosed the price to be US $ 0.50 per dozen boxes CIF, and the compared import was of another brand and of slightly lesser quantity.We do not think that in the circumstances these contentions could be accepted. The Collector has noticed that the sale confirmation which quoted the lower price did not refer to any bran...

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Delhi

Decided on: Aug-09-1996

Reported in: (1996)(87)ELT452TriDel

1. Applicant in the ROA seeks restoration of the appeal which dismissed for default on 8-5-1996. The ROA came up for hearing on 6-8-1996. On that day we perused the ROA and the records made available. The ROA indicates that it is an application in Appeal No. C/1253/89-A (F. No.70/91-A). We wanted to verify what that appeal was since the appeal which was dismissed for default on 8-5-1996 was Appeal No. C/3852/88-A.The Registry has clarified that Appeal No. C/1253/89-A had been filed by the Department against the present applicant and the appeal was disposed of in the absence of the respondent therein but no merits. The restoration application refers to a letter dated 18-4-1996 of the applicant seeking adjournment. That application, on verification, seems to have been filed for seeking adjournment but not of the present appeal but of Appeal No. C/1253/89-A.2. The applicant has enclosed a photocopy of written argument which refers to the case F. No. C/70/91-A. If such written argument ha...
