2024 (1) TMI 476 - HC - CustomsSeeking provisional release of consignment of apples - import price below the minimum price of apples for import at Rs. 50/- per kg. - applicability of N/N. 5/2023 - HELD THAT:- In the present case, the Bills of Entry seeks to clear the imports of apples which are imported by the petitioner at a price which is at Rs. 50/- per kg. Thus clearly the price per kilogram being Rs. 50/-, which is not below the price fixed by Notification No. 5 of 2023, it would be correct for the petitioner to contend that the respondents cannot detain the petitioner’s consignment on the basis of the minimum price as fixed by the said notification - thus, there is no reason as to why the petitioner ought not to be permitted to clear the goods. It is directed that the imports of the petitioner, which are the subject matter of Bill of Entry No. 8876300 dated 22/11/2023 and Bill of Entry No. 8940516 dated 25/11/2023 be not detained on the ground that these goods are prohibited goods under Notification No. 5/2023, and, on such count, be released on the petitioner furnishing a bond - petition disposed off.
