Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Sep-15-1992

Reported in: 1993(65)ELT15(Bom)

A.V. Savant, J.1. The short question raised in this Petition is whether the stainless steel circles imported by the petitioner fall under Item 73.15(1) of the Central Customs Tariff Act, 1975, attracting lesser customs duty as contended by the petitioner or whether the said stainless steel circles fall under Item 73.15(2) of the said Tariff Act attracting higher customs duty. The relevant period of import is February 1982. There is no controversy before us that by virtue of the amending Act No. 15 of 1982, which was enacted on 11th day of May 1982 but was retrospectively brought into operation with effect from 1st of January 1981, the imported goods would fall under item 73.15(2) of the said Tariff Act. It appears that the Delhi High Court had an occasion to consider the identical question in a series of matters starting with the case of Super Traders v. Union of India, being Civil Writ Petition No. 2131 of 1982 decided on 23rd of September, 1982 which decision has been reported in 198...
