2017 (6) TMI 1215 - BOMBAY HIGH COURTRenewal of CHA License - it was alleged that the respondent No. 1 did not fulfill the present norms of volume/value of business for 4 years at a stretch due to sickness, especially when he had another authorized person by name Shri Rajesh S. Satnak to undertake the job - Customs House Agents Licensing Regulations, 2004 - Held that: - the 2004 Regulations specifically provides that the Commissioner could renew a licence, if he satisfied with the performance of the licensee when benchmarked against the quantity or value of cargo cleared by such licensee. These norms, as may be prescribed are not cast in stone and the same could be relaxed, if the Commissioner is satisfied with the reasons for its non-satisfaction as is evident for Rule 11 of the 2004 Regulations. The respondent’s CHA licence continues to be valid today after having been renewed from time to time by the Commissionerate at Nagpur. This indicates that on being medically fit, the respondent has achieved the prescribed norms of business. The license is renewed - Appeal dismissed - decided against Revenue.
