In both the cases, the Respondents (appellants in the original appeal) were foreign suppliers of certain goods. On appreciation of various evidences, both of us came to the conclusion that the suppliers cannot claim bona fide in the shipment and hence the ratio of the Supreme Court in Sampatraj Duggar 1992 (52) ELT 163 (SC) cannot be applied.
