One importer secured the differential duty through a substantial cash deposit, while the other furnished a full-value bond with bank guarantee covering duty and interest. The department required additional bank guarantees to permit release of the goods. The matter was accordingly placed before the Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (CESTAT).<\/p>\n<h2><em>CESTAT Held<\/em><\/h2>\n<p>The CESTAT held that the seized wrap knitted fabric was commercial in nature, neither prohibited nor subject to import conditions, and that the interests of the exchequer were adequately protected through the cash deposit and the bank guarantee. The Tribunal observed that requiring additional guarantees would be unreasonable. Accordingly, the goods were directed to be released on full value bonds without any further bank guarantees, in accordance with Section 110A read with Sections 110 and 143 of the Customs Act, 1962.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Case Details: Canadian Speciality Vinyls vs. Commissioner of Customs, Noida (2026)
