CESTAT appellate tribunal adjudicated classification dispute...

CESTAT appellate tribunal adjudicated classification dispute involving imported hydrocarbon oil. The tribunal ruled in favor of the appellant, finding the customs department's test report inadequate due to incomplete testing of prescribed parameters under BIS IS 1459:1974 standards. Only five out of eight mandatory parameters were examined, rendering the classification determination inconclusive. Consequently, the burden of proof remained unmet by the revenue authorities. The tribunal applied the principle of benefit of doubt in favor of the appellant, rejecting department's classification assessment and upholding the Commissioner (Appeals) order. Appeals were dismissed, effectively allowing the appellant's classification claim.
