Counsel for the applicant contends that the duty has been paid in 1994 but has no evidence in support. On the other hand, the appellant while forwarding its appeal to the Commissioner (Appeals) in 1997 had stated that application for waiver deposit of duty and penalty has been filed. Commissioner (Appeals)&#8217;s order asked for deposit of duty. There being no evidence of deposit of duty, if the duty is not shown to have been paid within six weeks from today and compliance not reported on 28.7.2001 the appeal is liable to be dismissed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Customs, Excise and Gold Tribunal &#8211; Mumbai Deco Mica Limited vs Commissioner Of Customs And &#8230; on 25 May, 2001 ORDER 1.
