Pursuant to search and seizure, the Commissioner passed an Order-in-Original confirming customs duty and imposing penalties. The appellants filed appeals before the CESTAT after the amendment to Section 129E of the Customs Act, 1962 came into force. The CESTAT dismissed the appeals for non-compliance with the mandatory pre-deposit requirement. The appellants contended that the Tribunal ought to have waived the pre-deposit in view of the jurisdictional challenge and acute financial distress. The matter was placed before the High Court.<\/p>\n<h2><em>High Court Held<\/em><\/h2>\n<p>The High Court held that the requirement of pre-deposit under amended Section 129E of the Customs Act, 1962 was mandatory and the discretion available under the unamended provision to waive the deposit no longer survived. It held that the CESTAT had no power to dispense with the statutory pre-deposit on the ground of financial hardship or a jurisdictional challenge. The Court observed that the question of jurisdiction could be examined only after the appeals became maintainable by compliance with the statutory pre-deposit. Relying upon Chandra Sekhar Jha v. Union of India 2022 (380) E.L.T. 130 (S.C.) and Ganesh Yadav v. Union of India 2015 (320) E.L.T. 71 (All.), the Court upheld the dismissal of the appeals for non-compliance with Section 129E and held that no substantial question of law arose.<\/p>\n<h2><em>List of Cases Reviewed<\/em><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Deepu Jewellers LLC Dubai, dated 29.8.2019 by CESTAT, Allahabad \u2014 Affirmed [Paras 2, 20, 23, 34, 35]<\/li>\n<li>Kishore Ratilal Dhakan, dated 29.8.2019 by CESTAT, Allahabad \u2014 Affirmed [Paras 2, 20, 23, 34, 35]<\/li>\n<li>Samrah Gold Factory Limited, dated 29.8.2019 by CESTAT, Allahabad \u2014 Affirmed [Paras 2, 20, 23, 34, 35]<\/li>\n<li>Ajit Exports v.
