DM International (2012 (289) ELT 196), the Tribunal held that transaction value cannot be rejected by the Authorities in the absence of any of the reasons specified under rule 12 of the Valuation (Determination of Value of Imported Goods) Rules (CVR), 2007 which, amongst others, includes contemporaneous imports at higher value. The Tribunal, in CC v. Prasad Enterprises (2013 (289) ELT 307), held that transaction value cannot be rejected without clear and cogent evidence produced by the department with regard to the quantity, quality, country of origin and place and time of 2 March Volume 15 Issue 12 import. In Indian Oil v. CC (2013 (289) ELT 33), the Tribunal held that technical know-how fee paid to process licensors for providing process design, specification, data and review of documents are not includible to the value of goods imported under a separate agreement unless there is nexus of such fees with the imported goods. Others The Tribunal, in CC v. Mohammad Hussain Gauri (2013-TIOL-385- CESTAT-MUM), held that reasons such as heavy work pressure like investigation and issuance of notices resulting in delay in filing the crossobjections by the Department cannot be condoned as the provisions relating to appeal do not envisage such reasons as sufficient cause for permitting filing of cross-objections after expiry of the relevant period. In MSC Agency India Pvt. Ltd. v. CC (2013-TIOL-455-CESTAT-MUM), the Tribunal held that that the exporter is liable to penalty where the goods were loaded on to the vessel for export and sailed before the Let Export Order was given by the authorities as it is the responsibility of the exporter and agent to ensure that the goods are exported after completion of all the formalities.
3 In Gammon India Ltd. v. CC (2013- TIOL-471-CESTAT-MUM), the Tribunal held that there can be no equity or presumption to a tax as a taxing statute has to be interpreted strictly. The Tribunal, in Mohan Singh Rajpurohit. v. CC (2013-TIOL-487- CESTAT-MUM), held that a rectification of mistake application has to be heard by the same bench meaning the same members in terms of provisions of CESTAT (Procedure) Rules, In Shabeer Enterprises v. CC (2013- TIOL-498-CESTAT-MAD), the Tribunal held that delay in filing the appeal before the Tribunal, due to litigation before the High Court can be a sufficient cause for condoning the delay in filing the appeal. 3 March Volume 15 Issue 12
