Case Laws Customs AT

CESTAT held that imported components (blowers, filters, water valve assembly, control panel, module, and thermostat) should be classified under their respective specific tariff items rather than as generic air conditioner parts. The tribunal determined each component's classification based on its specific function and characteristics: blowers under CTI 8414 59 30, filters under CTI 8421 39 90, water valve assembly under CTI 8481 80 90, thermostat under CTI 9032 10 10, control panel under CTI 8538 10 90, and module under CTI 9032 10 10. The appeal was allowed, setting aside the Principal Commissioner's reassessment order, and ruling that differential basic customs duty with interest could not be levied.
