2016 (12) TMI 831 - HC - CustomsRestoration of CHA licence - violation of Regulation 12 - Held that: - though the said Manish Sangani was found to have utilised the licence, the said Manish Sangani himself was a CHA. His licence was suspended. Though the licence was suspended, the Customs did not forfeit the authorisation in his favour and seize the documents in that regard. Therefore, the involvement of the Customs Officers was also directed to be probed by the tribunal. In the facts and circumstances of the present case, though upholding the charges and the findings of the inquiry officer in that regard, the quantum of punishment was interfered with. Once we have found that the licence was not in use from 29th March, 2012 and till date, then, the tribunal's order does not require any interference. It cannot be termed as perverse or vitiated by error of law apparent on the face of the record. We, therefore, dismiss this appeal - the CHA licence of the respondent would be restored.
