(Circular No. 12/2014-Cus dated 17 November, 2014) Valuation The Mumbai Tribunal held in Atlas Copco India Ltd v CC (2014-TIOL CESTAT-MUM), held that royalty paid on account of technical know-how was not includible in assessable value of imported goods as the same was not a condition of sale of imported goods. In Alcan India Ltd v CC (2014-TIOL CESTAT-MUM), the Mumbai Tribunal held that the consideration paid in terms of management consultancy services agreement was not includible in assessable value of imported goods as there was no nexus of the same with imported goods.

In Reiter India Pvt Ltd v CC (2014 (309) ELT 277), the Mumbai Tribunal held that amendment in bill of entry had to be allowed even though goods were out of customs charge, on the basis of documentary evidence warranting such an amendment. 3 November Volume 17 Issue 08
