2023 (9) TMI 824 - CESTAT KOLKATAValuation of imported old and used worn clothing - restricted item or not - enhancement of value - confiscation - redemption fine - penalty - HELD THAT:- This issue came up before this Tribunal in the case of Venus Traders Vs. Commissioner of Customs (Import), Mumbai reported in [2018 (11) TMI 625 - CESTAT MUMBAI], wherein this Tribunal has observed The failure of the original authority to comply with the direction in remand to disclose the margin of profit that prompted the fine and penalty, the matter would normally have to be remitted back by another remand order. However, the paucity of evidence and the negligible scope for ascertainment at this stage deters us from doing so. Thus, the redemption fine and penalty imposed on the respondents by the adjudicating authority is sufficient to meet the end of justice. Therefore, the redemption fine and penalty confirmed by the adjudicating authority are upheld - impugned order upheld. Appeal filed by Revenue dismissed.
