Redemption Fine And Penalty Can Be Imposed On Re-export Of Prohibited Goods: CESTAT
Case Title: M/s. Scania Commercial Vehicles India Pvt. Ltd. Versus Commissioner of Customs
The Chennai Bench of Customs, Excise, and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (CESTAT) has held that a redemption fine and penalty can be imposed on the re-export of prohibited goods. Section 125 enables the Customs Officer to grant an option to the owner or the person from whose possession the goods have been seized to pay a fine in lieu of confiscation. In an adjudication proceeding as in the present case these are the provisions which would come into play. If the owner gets the goods released after payment of redemption fine, he may either clear it for home consumption or re-export the same subject to the relevant rules. A permission granted for re-export on the basis of a request made by the owner of the goods is outside the purview of the adjudication proceedings.
