No.7563 of 2009\n             ---------------------------------\n             Dated, this the 20th day of March, 2009\n\n                           J U D G M E N T\n<\/pre>\n<p>      The petitioner is an importer of a commodity called &#8216;reflective<\/p>\n<p>glass&#8217;. Exts.P1 &amp; P2 are the bills of entries filed by them at the time<\/p>\n<p>of import. Ext.P3 is the notification issued by the 1st respondent<\/p>\n<p>levying anti dumping duty on import of Float Glass originating in, or<\/p>\n<p>exported from, China and Indonesia.         On the strength of Ext.P3,<\/p>\n<p>anti-dumping duty was imposed and the petitioner could clear the<\/p>\n<p>goods only on furnishing Exts.P4 &amp; P5 Bank Guarantee for the duty<\/p>\n<p>that is payable.\n<\/p>\n<p>      2.   In this writ petition, the petitioner disputes his liability to<\/p>\n<p>pay anti dumping duty, as, according to him, reflective glass is<\/p>\n<p>excluded from the description of Float Glass, in respect of which<\/p>\n<p>anti-dumping duty has been imposed by Ext.P3. He is also making<\/p>\n<p>reference to Exts.P6 &amp; P7 notifications. Ext.P6 is the notification<\/p>\n<p>dated 22\/08\/2003 containing the final findings in respect of the<\/p>\n<p>proposal for levying anti-dumping duty. A reading of paragraph 8<\/p>\n<p>shows that the preliminary findings as regards the product under<\/p>\n<p>WP(C) No.7563\/2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                     -2-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>consideration, excluded reflective glass from the scope of the<\/p>\n<p>investigation and imposition of anti-dumping duty. This position is<\/p>\n<p>also seen reiterated in the conclusions and also in the schedule, to<\/p>\n<p>the notification itself. Ext.P7 is yet another notification issued by<\/p>\n<p>the Customs Department vide notification No.165\/2003 dated<\/p>\n<p>12\/11\/2003.      This also carries the description of the goods<\/p>\n<p>excluding reflective glass.\n<\/p>\n<p>     3.    However, when it comes to Ext.P8, which is issued after a<\/p>\n<p>sunset review that was undertaken by the Department, the product<\/p>\n<p>under consideration has been described in the following manner:-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>     &#8220;3.   Product under Consideration.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>     The product under consideration in this sunset review is Float<br \/>\n     Glass of thickness 2 mm to 12 mm, (both thickness inclusive) of<br \/>\n     clear as well as tinted variety (other than green glass) but not<br \/>\n     including processed glass meant for decorative, industrial or<br \/>\n     automotive purposes.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>     Since, the present investigation is a review investigation; product<br \/>\n     under consideration remains the same as has been defined in the<br \/>\n     original  investigation,  as  there   has   been    no   significant<br \/>\n     development or change in the product during the period<br \/>\n     thereafter.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>     4.    Similarly, when it comes to Ext.P10, the notification<\/p>\n<p>containing the final findings of the product under consideration and<\/p>\n<p>WP(C) No.7563\/2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                       -3-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>like article, paragraphs 6 &amp; 8, reads as under :-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>      &#8220;Views of the Domestic Industry\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      6.     The product involved in the original investigation and this<br \/>\n      sunset review is Float Glass of thickness 2mm to 12mm (both<br \/>\n      thickness inclusive) of clear as well as tinted variety (other than<br \/>\n      green glass) but not including processed glass meant for<br \/>\n      decorative, industrial or automotive purposes. Since, the present<br \/>\n      investigation is a review investigation; product under consideration<br \/>\n      remains the same as has been defined in the original investigation,<br \/>\n      as there has been no significant development or change in the<br \/>\n      product during the period thereafter. It is classified under Chapter<br \/>\n      heading 70.05 of the first schedule of Customs Tariff Act, 1975.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      &#8212;&#8211;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      &#8212;&#8211;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      Examination by Authority\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      8.     Authority examined the contentions of the domestic industry<br \/>\n      in detail.  It is noted that the present investigation is a sunset<br \/>\n      review investigation and therefore the scope of the product under<br \/>\n      consideration should not be altered in review investigation. The<br \/>\n      Authority therefore holds that the scope of the present product<br \/>\n      under consideration is the same as was the scope of the product<br \/>\n      under consideration in the sunset review investigations notified<br \/>\n      vide Notification No.14\/19\/2002-DGAD dated 22\/08\/2003 and<br \/>\n      consequent Customs Notification No.165\/2003-Customs, dated<br \/>\n      12\/11\/2003.&#8221;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It was thereafter that Ext.P3, the final notification of the anti-<\/p>\n<p>dumping duty on import of float glass, has been issued. Ext.P3<\/p>\n<p>WP(C) No.7563\/2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                 -4-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>notification does not carry the description of the goods as contained<\/p>\n<p>in any of the previous notification, but only refers to heading<\/p>\n<p>No.70.05 of the 1st schedule of Customs Tariff Act, 1975.<\/p>\n<p>      5.    Thus perusal of Ext.P6 and P7 show that in the<\/p>\n<p>description of Float Glass, the item reflective glass has been<\/p>\n<p>excluded. But, however, such exclusion is not seen contained in<\/p>\n<p>Exts.P8 and P10.     Therefore, when the goods in respect of anti<\/p>\n<p>dumping duty is imposed in Ext.P3, the description of the goods as<\/p>\n<p>contained in Exts.P8 &amp; P10 was what is relevant and this did not<\/p>\n<p>exclude reflective glass.\n<\/p>\n<p>      6.    Therefore, prima facie, I am not satisfied that the<\/p>\n<p>reflective glass are excluded from the description of Float Glass in<\/p>\n<p>respect of which anti dumping duty has been levied. In view of this,<\/p>\n<p>I am not persuaded to accept the contention of the learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>for the petitioner that the levy of anti dumping duty is without<\/p>\n<p>jurisdiction.\n<\/p>\n<p>      7.    True, the learned counsel for the petitioner made<\/p>\n<p>reference to Exts.P11 &amp; P12. According to him these documents<\/p>\n<p>would show that reflective glass, were allowed to be imported in<\/p>\n<p>WP(C) No.7563\/2009<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                   -5-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>certain other ports in the country without levying anti dumping<\/p>\n<p>duty.  This Court can be guided only by the description of the<\/p>\n<p>commodity as available in the notification and even if there has<\/p>\n<p>been any omission on the part of the Department in levying duty at<\/p>\n<p>any place that will not justify interference levy of duty, if it is<\/p>\n<p>otherwise legal.     Therefore, this court will not be justified in<\/p>\n<p>granting any relief in the writ petition and it is accordingly<\/p>\n<p>dismissed. However, it is clarified that the findings in the judgment<\/p>\n<p>will not stand in the way of the petitioner agitating his liability<\/p>\n<p>before the appellate Forum that is available under the statute,<\/p>\n<p>which, shall decide the matter untrammelled by any of the<\/p>\n<p>observations made above.\n<\/p>\n<p>      The writ petition fails and is, accordingly, dismissed.<\/p>\n<p>                                         (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE)<br \/>\njg<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court K.Kochumon vs Union Of India on 20 March, 2009 IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM WP(C).No. 7563 of 2009(M) 1.
