Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Mar-26-2002

Reported in: (2002)LC58Tri(Mum.)bai

1. The question for consideration in this appeal is the acceptability of the value declared by the appellant of rough diamonds imported by it. Out of three lots that it imported, the value declared for one was accepted. The department was of the view that the value declared for the other two was excessive and proposed confiscation under Clause (m) of Section 111 of the Act. The goods were unconditionally exempted from duty by Notification 36/93. The importer waived issue of notice. In the order impugned in the appeal, the Commissioner has reduced the value of the goods from the declared value of totalling Rs. 66,83,862/- to Rs. 32,40,540/- ordering the goods to be confiscated under Clause (m) of Section 111 of the Act but permitted them to be exported on payment of Rs. 5 lakhs. He also imposed a penalty on the appellant of Rs. 25 lakhs.2.

Ashok Leyland Ltd. Vs. Commissioner of Central Excise,

Court: Customs Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal CESTAT Mumbai

Decided on: Mar-26-2002

Reported in: (2002)(144)ELT384Tri(Mum.)bai

1. Gowri Shankar, Member (T) - The application is for waiver of deposit of duty of Rs. 8,11,950/- and penalty of Rs. 1000/-.2. The applicant is absent and unrepresented despite notice. The stay application filed by the applicant contains no ground whatsoever on merits. All that it says is that the impugned order does not recognize the facts in the right perspective, the applicant has a prima facie case and there are number of decisions of the Tribunal in favour of the applicant.3. Sub-rule (3) of Rule 28A of the CEGAT (Procedure) Rules specifically requires the application of waiver of deposit to indicate reasons in brief in seeking stay. The reason that is furnished in the stay application is entirely insufficient for me to come t(c) a conclusion that any of the amount in question is not required to be deposited. The stay application does not even refer to the appeal except to say that it has been filed. I have no option to conclude that the applicant is not able to specify any groun...
