Classification of imported goods - All the four goods, i.e., API supari, chikni supari, unflavoured supari, flavoured supari merit classification under Chapter 8 of the First Schedule to the Customs Tariff Act, and more precisely, under the heading 0802 80 90, and not under sub-heading 21069030, since the processes the raw betel nuts have been subjected to and addition of starch (and flavouring agents in the case of flavoured supari) are squarely covered by the scope of the Chapter Note 3 to Chapter 8. These processes are not substantive enough to render the goods with character of "preparations of betel nut", sine qua non for being eligible for classification under sub-heading 2106 90 30. - AAR
