The goods imported by the appellant is rags which admittedly a residual product. The residual product cannot be of standard quality. As regards its characteristics, quality, size, shape, colour etc. it various from consignment to consignment. - Since no evidence was produced by the Revenue, enhancement of the price of the impugned goods appears to be without any basis. It is a trite law that for applying the price of contemporaneous goods, it is necessary to ascertain that the goods is of same character, quality, quantity, country of origin etc. and without ascertaining the same, the adoption of price of contemporaneous goods cannot be treated as price of contemporaneous goods. Due to the said deficiency in the whole proceeding, we are of the considered view that there is no sufficient basis for revenue to enhance the value of imported goods - Decided in favour of assessee.
