2017 (3) TMI 1430 - AT - CustomsRevocation of CHA licence - forfeiture of security deposit - non-adherence of time limits in terms of Regulation 20 of CBLR, 2013 - Held that: - admittedly, the enquiry report which is to be submitted within 90 days of issue of show cause notice in terms of Regulation 20 of CBLR has been submitted, in the present case, after 10 months. On this non-adherence of time limit alone the proceedings are to be held as invalid - by now, it is a well settled legal position that the time limits prescribed in the Regulations are mandatorily to be followed. Failure to adhere to the said time limits will make the proceedings without jurisdiction and invalid - appeal allowed - decided in favor of CHA-appellant.
