1991 (2) TMI 218 - SC - CustomsValidity of sub-para (10) of para 218 of the Import & Export Policy for the period April 1988 to March 1991 questioned - Held that:- In the Import & Export Policy 1988-91 there has been relaxation to a limited extent in respect of imports by Export Houses who are granted Additional licences under the said Policy on the basis of their exports during that period 1987-88 and subsequent periods. Since the basis for the grant of Additional licences which are entitled to this relaxation is different from the basis on which Additional licences were granted to the petitioners, the petitioners cannot claim the benefit of the same relaxation and assail the validity of sub-para (10) of para 218 of the Import & Export Policy 1988-91. Thus it must be held that the petitioners have failed to make out a case for interference by this Court under Article 32 of the Constitution. Since the matter has been pending in this Court and the Additional licences issued to the petitioners have expired in the meanwhile we consider it appropriate that the period of validity of the said licences should be extended so that the petitioners can avail the same and are able to import the goods which can be so imported under the prevailing Import Policy. Appeal dismissed.
