The value of the goods had been arrived at Rs. 3,58,492.\n<\/p>\n<p> 2. Arguing for the appellants, Ld. Counsel Shri A.K. Jayaraj submits that the Tribunal in similar matters pertaining to &#8216;garlic&#8217; have restricted the RF to 22% and penalty of around 10%. He quotes the Final Order No. 436\/2000 dated 18.4.2000 in the case of SSP International Enterprises wherein the RF was reduced to Rs. 7 Lakhs on a value of Rs. 30,51,641 which worked out to 22% approx.

Traders vide Final Order Nos. 2474 &amp; 2475\/1998 dated 30.11.88. After taking both the orders into consideration in the case of M.R. Exports v. CC by final order No. 751\/2000 dated 6.6.2000, the redemption fine is reduced to Rs. 79,000 (Rupees seventy nine thousand only) and penalty to Rs. 25,000 (Rupees twenty five thousand only).
