2019 (1) TMI 923 - HC - CustomsValidity of order in original - the competent concerned authority at Nhava Sheva, Raigad, Maharashtra has already rendered a decision on 30.6.2014 and hence the entire exercise undertaken by the respondent No.3 for issuing the order dated 29.03.2018 was unfortunate, unwarranted and deserves to be quashed and set aside - the concerned authority did record the new address of the petitioner - Held that:- This is a fit case in which if the court is not called upon to exercise its discretion then not only would cause prejudice to the petitioner but would unnecessarily encroached upon the time of the tribunal. The court would have rather considered for awarding appropriate cost also had there been some intimation to the authority deciding subsequent proceedings. In the instant case, as there was no intimation to the subsequent authority, we are not inclined to award any cost but we will surely would like to record that appropriate communication and inter-departmental exchanges would have avoided - Petition allowed.
