    Case Summary: WP No. 19918/2026 The Madras High Court granted interim stay of a customs order dated 19.02.2026 against M/s. Sawalka Kel Pvt. Ltd., which had confirmed a differential duty demand of Rs. 94,53,010/-, imposed confiscation, redemption fine of Rs. 9,00,000/-, and penalty of Rs. 5,00,000/- under the Customs Act 1962. The court found a prima facie case due to contradictory positions by respondents and the original order's acknowledgment of no suppression or willful misstatement. The interim stay is conditional upon the petitioner paying 25% of the confirmed demand (Rs. 23,63,253/-) within four weeks; failure to pay will automatically vacate the stay. The case is adjourned for four weeks for respondents to file their counter-affidavit. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
