2006 (12) TMI 280 - AT - CustomsCustoms House Agent’s Licence - fraudulent export - forfeited the security deposit - Revocation of licence - HELD THAT:- The examination of Mr Gala reveals that he was only getting commission for procuring business for the appellant and was acting as a representative of M/s Payal Exim. The export goods were electrodes which were found to be electrodes only through of inferior quality. CHA is not under any obligation to verify the quality of the goods or to verify value of the same. As such, if the goods to be exported by M/s Payal Exim has been found to be lesser value, the appellant, as a CHA, cannot be blamed for the same. As such, we are of the view that revocation of his licence is neither justified nor warranted. The same is accordingly set aside and the appeal allowed with consequential relief.
