Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the classification of dried pomegranate seeds, known as 'anardana', under the Customs Tariff Act, 1975. The court examined whether these seeds should be classified under Heading 0813 as per the Customs authorities or under Heading 1209 as claimed by the importers. Ultimately, the court ruled in favor of the importers, affirming the classification under Heading 1209, which resulted in a lower duty rate.
