Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court of Gujarat's decision regarding the constitutional validity of Section 151A of The Customs Act, 1962, affirming that it does not violate any constitutional provisions. The Court also ruled that the Standing Order No. 7493/99 issued by the Chief Commissioner of Customs is not a rigid directive but rather flexible guidelines for assessing the value of goods for customs duty. The appeals challenging the legality of the Standing Order were dismissed, confirming the High Court's interpretation and application of the law.
