Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that Customs authorities are not bound by the invoice value when assessing import value for customs duty and may rely on contemporaneous evidence to determine the correct value. The Court upheld the Tribunal's decision, stating that the appellant failed to provide evidence showing that the invoice value was inaccurate. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed without any order as to costs.
