2018 (3) TMI 722 - HC - CustomsIssuance of cheque for the premium amount in lieu of surrendered REP licences - REP licences, Imprest Licence issued from time to time in accordance with the import-export policy in force - Held that: - where advance/imprest licences have already been issued, the claim was to be filed with the licensing offices in Part-II of the application form. The claim shall be scrutinized and in the manner indicated in Part-II of the Circular along with E.P. copy of the shipping bill and bank certificates of export/realisation. The premium amount will then be paid for the unutilised CIF value, as indicated in the exchange control copy of the licence as on 1st March 1993. As far as pending advance licence application, it shall be filed with the licencing authority with whom the application for advance licence is still pending and there are other stipulations in para 2(c), which have to be complied with. Para 3(2)(d) deals with the pending claims of gem and jewellery REP licences. The petitioner must blame himself for having approached this Court belatedly and much after the cut off date. Secondly, the respondents are not obliged to preserve the records and endlessly. All that we have are three copies of applications made by the petitioner and we have referred to the details thereof There is thus merit in the contentions of the respondents that the scheme was to operate exclusively under the supervision of Reserve Bank of India. Secondly, the benefit of orders passed by this Court in the writ petitions which were filed in this Court but before the cut off date, can be of no assistance. The petitioner cannot be granted any relief - petition dismissed.
