2024 (4) TMI 251 - BOMBAY HIGH COURTSeeking clearance of the goods - High Seas Sale agreement stands cancelled - default on the part of respondent No. 6 in making payments - It is contended that the petitioner has now stepped into the shoes of respondent No. 6 and has become entitled to seek amendment of the bill of entry and/ or to file a fresh bill of entry to clear the goods - HELD THAT:- On a query made by us, Mr. Nankani has submitted that there are no transactions of the petitioner with respondent No. 6, except the present High Seas Sale which too stands cancelled. It is submitted that except for this contract, the petitioner has never dealt with respondent No. 6. Respondent No. 6 who is represented by Mr. Gohil, learned counsel states that respondent No. 6 has no objection whatsoever for the goods being cleared by the petitioner. Thus, in our opinion, considering the request which is made by the petitioner by its letter dated 15 December, 2023 addressed to the Deputy Commissioner of Customs (Imports), JNCH, Nhava Sheva (supra), it is appropriate that the application of the petitioner for clearance of the goods either by permitting amendment of bill of entry or by filing of a fresh bill of entry as the law may permit, needs to be decided by the concerned designated officer. We accordingly permit the petitioner to place on record of the designated Customs Officer, a proper application raising all contentions as may be permissible in law which the petitioner state would be filed within two days from today. The petition stands disposed of in the aforesaid terms.
