CENTURY METAL RECYCLING PVT. LTD. vs UNION OF INDIA

The Supreme Court addressed the dismissal of a writ petition concerning the valuation of imported aluminium scrap by customs authorities. The court held that the High Court correctly refrained from exercising its extraordinary jurisdiction under Article 226, as the matter was subject to statutory appeal processes. The judgment emphasizes the importance of following established legal procedures for challenging customs valuations rather than seeking immediate relief through writ petitions.
